BY SNARE OF LOVE.
The _Dundee Courier_ says:--"To say that the clever author of 'When Iwas Czar' has eclipsed that stirring romance is to bring one within thesphere of the incredible. But it is true. The present novel is full tooverflowing of boundless resource and enterprise, which cannot but rouseeven the most blase of readers."

_Aberdeen Free Press_:--"This is another of Mr. Marchmont's cleverstories of adventure in Russia and is further proof of his ability toweave a complicated plot in which thrilling situations are worked outwith dramatic power.

A COURIER OF FORTUNE.
The _Daily Telegraph_ says:--"An exciting romance of the 'cloak andrapier.' The fun is fast and furious; plot and counterplot, ambushesand fightings, imprisonment and escapes follow each other with arapidity that holds the reader with a taste for adventure in a state ofmore or less breathless excitement to the close. Mr. Marchmont has aspirited manner in describing adventure, so that we pass on fromincident to incident, each of them having its part in the development ofaffairs which culminate in the death of the 'Tiger of Morvaix.'"

THE LITTLE ANARCHIST.
The _Scotsman_ says:--"A romance, brimful of incident and arousing inthe reader a healthy interest that carries him along with never apause--a vigorous story with elements that fascinate. In invention andworkmanship the novel shows no falling off from the high standard of Mr.Marchmont's earlier books."
