WHAT THE CRITICS SAY OF
The Merivale Banks
By Mary J. Holmes
“It is one of the most intensely interesting of its popular author’s stories.”—New York World.
“The element of romance is well handled and there is plenty to hold the attention to the last chapter. The author aims to portray life faithfully, and her efforts now, as in the past, are attended with no small measure of success.”—Utica Observer.
“It is one of the best of Mrs. Holmes’ many books. The plot is unique and the interest well sustained.”—Omaha World-Herald.
“It is a clever New England narrative, and there is no taint to it.”—Boston Courier.
“It is particularly vigorous in its character drawing. The author is thoroughly familiar with the life she paints, and her scenes often have a realism that shows she has been a close observer of monetary affairs under exciting conditions. The story has just enough sentiment in it to make it sweet and just enough world knowledge to make it natural and effective.”—Boston Beacon.
“The plot is unique and well carried out. There is a good deal of dramatic action in the story. The love element increases toward the close of the book and finishes with the conventional regard for poetic justice. One point strikingly in favor of the book is that it leaves a pleasant impression.”—Baltimore Herald.
“Is the best of Mrs. Holmes’ books. It is full of humor and pathos, and absorbing interest.”—Nashville American.
“It has all her best qualities and is as ingenious, diverting and snappy as anything she has written.”—Cleveland Leader.
“The story is pretty, the characters ordinary, the plot readable, and the course of true love ends happily.”—Boston Herald.
