The Friar of Wittenberg

BY WILLIAM STEARNS DAVIS, author of "A Friend of Cæsar," "God Wills it."

In the character of Martin Luther, William Stearns Davis has found admirable material around which to build an historical novel of more than ordinary importance. He has succeeded above all else in making the picturesque figure live, imparting to the stirring episodes in which he played a part so much of reality that the reader is enabled to visualize as never before the conditions leading to the religious revolt of which the Friar of Wittenberg was so powerful a leader.

"In the tale the stirring episodes in which Luther played a part are invested with so much reality that one may clearly visualize the conditions leading to the religious revolt of which the Friar of Wittenberg was so powerful a leader."—North American, Philadelphia, Pa.

"The story includes scenes and events so compelling and thrilling as to give to this master story-teller a great opportunity to use a mighty event in human progress as the splendid foundation for a great novel."—Salt Lake Tribune.

"Verily it is a remarkable book."—Philadelphia Public Ledger.

"No stronger picture has ever been painted than this of the German people who welcomed Luther's appeal to all that was best in them."—San Francisco Chronicle.

"'The Friar of Wittenberg' is written with power and earnest intention, and should prove a deep delight to those who wish even for their summer reading, something of a certain dignity and worth."—N.Y. World.
