The household of Bouverie,” “Monfort hall,” “Miriam’s house” “Hester Howard’s temptation,” “A double wedding; or, how she was won,” Etc.

  “No fears hath she!  Her giant form
    Majestically calm would go
  O’er wrathful surge, through blackening storm,
    ’Mid he deep darkness, white as snow! 
  So stately her bearing, so proud her array,
  The main she will traverse forever and aye! 
  Many ports shall exult in the gleam of her mast—­
  Hush! hush!  Thou vain dreamer, this hour is her last!

MIRIAM’S MEMOIRS.

MONFORT HALL.

THE HOUSEHOLD OF BOUVERIE.

A DOUBLE WEDDING; or, How She Was Won.

HESTER HOWARD’S TEMPTATION.

From Gail Hamilton, author of “Gala Days” etc.

“‘The Household of Bouverie’ is one of those books that pluck out all your teeth, and then dare you to bite them.  Your interest is awakened at once in the first chapter, and you are whirled through in a lightning-express train that leaves you no opportunity to look at the little details of wood, and lawn, and river.  You notice two or three little peculiarities of style—­one or two ‘bits’ of painting—­and then you pull on your seven-leagued boots and away you go.”

From George Ripley’s Review of “The Household of Bouverie” in Harper’s Magazine.

“‘The Household of Bouverie,’ by Mrs. Warfield, is a wonderful book.  I have read it twice—­the second time more carefully than the first—­and I use the term ‘wonderful,’ because it best expresses the feeling uppermost in my mind, both while reading and thinking it over.  As a piece of imaginative writing, I have seen nothing to equal it since the days of Edgar A. Poe, and I doubt whether he could have sustained himself and the readers through a book half the size of the ’Household of Bouverie.’  I have literally hurried through it by my intense sympathy, my devouring curiosity—­It was more than interest.  I read everywhere—­between the courses of the hotel-table, on the boat, in the cars—­until I had swallowed the last line.  This is no common occurrence with a veteran romance reader like myself.”
