ut between the covers of a book."--Boston Budget.
"Every page is alive with incidents or scenes of the time, and any
one who reads it will get a vivid picture that can never be
forgotten of the Reign of Terror in Paris."--San Francisco
Chronicle.
"The author has a rare power of presenting vivid and lifelike
pictures. He is a true artist.... His warm, glowing, Provencal
imagination sees that tremendous battalion of death even as the no
less warm and glowing imagination of Carlyle saw it."--London
Daily Chronicle.
"Of 'The Reds of the Midi' itself it is safe to predict that the
story will become one of the most widely popular stories of the
next few months. It certainly deserves such appreciative
recognition, for it throbs with vital interest in every line....
The characters are living, stirring, palpitating human beings, who
will glow in the reader's memory long after he has turned over the
last pages of this remarkably fascinating book."--London Daily
Mail.
"A delightful romance.... The story is not only historically
accurate; it is one of continuous and vivid
interest."--Philadelphia Press.
"Simply enthralling.... The narrative abounds in vivid descriptions
of stirring incidents and wonderfully attractive depictions of
character. Indeed, one might almost say of 'The Reds of the Midi'
that it has all the fire and forcefulness of the elder Dumas, with
something more than Dumas's faculty for dramatic
compression."--Boston Beacon.
"A charmingly told story, and all the more delightful because of
the unstudied simplicity of the spokesman, Pascalet. Felix Gras is
a true artist, and he has pleaded the cause of a hated people with
the tact and skill that only an artist could employ."--Chicago
Evening Post.
"Much excellent revolutionary fiction in many languages has been
written since the announcement of the expiration of 1889, or rather
since the contemporary publication of old war records newly
discovered, but there is none more vivid than this story of men of
the south, written by one of their own blood."--Boston Herald.
