THE GREAT IMPERSONATION

_By_ E. PHILLIPS OPPENHEIM

With illustrations by Nana French Bickford

"No more successful mystery story was ever written than 'The
Great Impersonation.' It is indeed a triumph of construction and
treatment that holds the attention of the reader from first to
last."--_Philadelphia Public Ledger._

"'The Great Impersonation' is a thoroughly good story with an
ingenious plot, and a series of exciting episodes that recall A. Conan
Doyle of the days when he was writing about Sherlock Holmes."--_The
New York Tribune._

"For ingenuity of plot and cleverness of treatment, it is a
masterpiece among contemporary mystery stories."--_The Boston Herald._

"Mr. Oppenheim, well established master of mystery, has in 'The Great
Impersonation' outdone himself in his exploitation of the hitherto
unsuspected."--_The New York World._

"'The Great Impersonation' will be, and will deserve to be, one of the
best sellers of the year."--_The Boston Post._
