“ In this elaborately ingenious narrative the adventures recorded are various and exciting enough to suit the most exacting reader. The incidents recited are of extreme interest, and are not drawn out into noticeable tenuity.
The Outlook: "The Courtship of Maurice Buckler " is not only full of action and stimulating to curiosity, but tells a quite original plot in a clever way. Perhaps in its literary kinship it approaches more closely to " The Prisoner of Zenda " than to any other recent novel, but there is no evidence of imitation ; the resemblance is in the spirit and dash of the narrative. ”
