"There is much powerful and beautiful writing in this remarkable and not-to-be-forgotten book."—The World.
"The adventures of Diavolo and Angelica—the'Heavenly Twins'—are delightfully funny. No more original children were ever put in a book."— The Academy.
"The moral which the author undertakes to enforce is that the sacrifice of pure women in marriage to men of vicious lives is not only a crime against the individual, but against society itself." —Boston Beacon.
"The work swarms with wise sayings and noble counsels."—Methodist Times.
"This book is one full of talent, and not of talent misapplied, for 'The Heavenly Twins' is strong enough to assert itself and to point moral." — N. Y. Times.
"Whether or not a pure woman marrying has a right to equal purity in the man she marries — this is the problem attempted by arah Grand in her heroine's behalf in 'The Heavenly Twins.' It is an earnest book, showing its author's cultured mind on every Page."—Table Talk.
"A very curious and interesting novel. . . The burden of the author's song is the emancipation of woman and the establishment of a stricter moral standard for man.From one end to the other it is interesting, in spots intensely and absorbingly so." —Kate Field's Washington.

THE EMIGRANT SHIP. By W. CLARK RUSSELL, Author of "List, ye Landsmen!" "The Romance of a Transport" "The Wreck of the Grosvenor" etc., etc.
One Volume. 12mo. Cloth. $1.00.
"The story is told with excellent directness, and the atmosphere of life aboard an emigrant ship is admirably conveyed to the reader.There is no sea technicality to speak of, the whole interest of the story being concentrated in the hero's plan to develop a crew among his women passengers. On the whole, 'The Emigrant Ship' is one of the most readable of Mr. Russell's charming tales."—New York Times
"For a very fine tonic in the way of fiction commend us always to Mr. Clark Russell. The sea never fails to lash itself in a most beautiful manner when he is about. He has, perhaps, as vigorous a vocabulary as anybody now going. He can talk in strong and splendid phrase too of more things than the sea."—New York Sun.
"On the whole, the best which Mr. Russell has produced. It is beautfully bound and makes a marine library without it seem poverty-stricken."— 'Boston Daily Traveller."
"Is readable from begining to end. No better sea story has been written.'—Philadelphia Bulletin.
"The keen salt breath of the sea flows through all his descriptions, and he his readers feel its inspiration as he feels it himself. No one knows better the methods of ocean life, and no one handles its fascination more subtly or skill fully, while for the reader who loves a story for the story's sake this tale is wort half dozen of modern society novels."—New York Commercial Advertiser
"Will appeal to all such as love the sea and the free and breezy stories of it which are characteristic of this keen student and ardent lover of its moods and vagaries."—New York Mail and Express.
"There is genuine sea flavor to Clark Russell's stories, a salty taste, a smell of ropes and rigging, and the bracing freshness of the ocean air. There is also the freedom of the broad seas, but with all this there is neither the vulgarity nor the devilishness which so many nautical writers seem to think necessary to affect. His sea tales are original to a striking degree, they are never dull, and withal they are clean and wholesome. They make good reading for old boys as well as young.—Baltimore Telegram.
"The sea stories of W. Clark Russell have delighted readers for goodly number of years, and a new story by the author of 'The Wreck of the Grosvenor' is always hailed with delight. . . That the story is of thrilling interest and novelty goes without saying."—Boston Journal.
"It bright, interesting, strong. . . There is more of human nature in it than in any of his previous books."— New York World.
"Where is the boy, old or young, with a heart in him who doesn't know how incomparably well he writes his amazing adventures on the high seas? Here we have a story which could only by any possible chance proceed from the pen of Mr. Russell."—Philadelphia Press.
"W. Clark Russell stands without a peer as a master in telling marine stories.He is thoroughly at home at sea, and his new novel, 'The Emigrant Ship,' is one of of his best. The plot is fresh and the development is most skillful."—Boston Daily Advertiser.
