Readers of Miss Lagerlof will observe that in this, her latest book, _The Girl from the Marsh Croft,_ the Swedish author has abandoned her former world of Romanticism and has entered the field of Naturalism and Realism. This writer's romantic style is most marked, perhaps, in her first successful work, _Gosta Berling._ How _The Story of Gösta Berling_ grew, and the years required to perfect it, is told in the author's unique literary autobiography, _The Story of a Story,_ which is embodied in the present volume. In _The Girl from the Marsh Croft,_ Miss Lagerlöf has courageously chosen a girl who had gone astray as the heroine of her love story, making her innate honesty and goodness the redemptive qualities which win for her the love of an honest man and the respect and esteem of all.
