THE CROMPTONS
By MARY J. HOLMES
“The numberless admirers of the stories of Mary J. Holmes will find this, her latest novel, quite the equal of the earlier works which have long since won her the allegiance of a second generation of readers. ‘The Cromptons,’ apart from its special interest as a love-story and drama of the human heart, illustrates also class and family distinctions as they exist in America.”—Pittsburg Press.
“Mrs. Holmes’s new story, ‘The Cromptons,’ should receive a warm welcome from her many admirers. The tale is one of greatest interest.”—Book News.
“Whoever opens the pages of ‘The Cromptons’ will find in it the elements which have made popular this author’s thirty odd stories and carried her name, a household word, to millions of readers.”—Nashville American.
“Mrs. Holmes is a writer whose appeal to her readers has always been powerful. There will be found in ‘The Cromptons’ that same facility of narrative style which gave vogue to ‘’Lena Rivers,’ ‘Tempest and Sunshine,’ and others of her early works.”—N. Y. World.
“It glows with the same love of outdoor nature, and the same purity of motive and expression that have endeared her to her immense audience.”—Bangor Commercial.
“It will prove highly satisfactory to the author’s legion of readers who are inclined to be conservative in their choice of fiction.”—Philadelphia Press.
“The author’s skill takes a grip on the reader which does not slacken to the end of the tale, although it practically covers the heart drama of three generations of the Cromptons.”—Seattle Times.
“With humble life and homely surroundings, she is as much in touch as when she is portraying with delicate insight the mazes of a young girl’s heart.”—Phila. North-American.
“Her novels circulate by the hundreds of thousands, and her name is conjured with where the literary aristocrats are never heard of.”—Rochester Herald.
