Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From the Publisher
T.P. O’Connor: "Hall Caine reaches heights attained only by the greatest masters of fiction. He belongs to that small minority of the great elect of literature."
Scotsman: "Brief and vigorous, written throughout with spirit and great literary skill."
Gladstone: "I cannot but regard with warm respect and admiration the conduct of one who holding the author’s position as an admired and accepted novelist, stakes himself on so bold a protestation on behalf the things which are unseen, as against those which are seen and are so terribly effective in chaining us down to the level of our earthly existence."
Joseph Parker: "The author prepares to be great, really means to be great, and, in my judgment, always succeeds in being great."
Deutsche Warte ( Berlin ): "Hall Caine impresses the essential truth and dignity of human nature upon the minds of his readers." --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.
About the Author
Sir Thomas Henry Hall Caine (1853-1931) was an English novelist. Secretary to Dante Gabriel Rossetti, he lived with him from 1881 until the poet's death and wrote Recollections of Rossetti (1882). He moved his residence permanently to the Isle of Man in 1895 and was elected to the Manx House of Keys (the local legislature) in 1903. His enormously popular novels, some of Manx life, others on biblical themes, include The Shadow of a Crime (1885), The Deemster (1887), The Manxman (1894), The Christian (1897), The Prodigal Son (1904), and The Master of Man (1921). His novels, some of which were set in the Isle of Man, sold by the million, were made into plays and films, and were translated into many languages.
