Caine is yearly adding."--_Public Opinion._
"A wonderfully strong study of character; a powerful analysis of those
elements which go to make up the strength and weakness of a man, which
are at fierce warfare within the same breast: contending against each
other, as it were, the one to raise him to fame and power, the other to
drag him down to degradation and shame. Never in the whole range of
literature have we seen the struggle between these forces for supremacy
over the man more powerfully, more realistically delineated, than Mr.
Caine pictures it."--_Boston Home Journal._
"'The Manxman' is one of the most notable novels of the year, and is
unquestionably destined to perpetuate the fame of Hall Caine for many a
year to come."--_Philadelphia Telegraph._
"The author exhibits a mastery of the elemental passions of life that
places hum high among the foremost of present writers of
fiction."--_Philadelphia Inquirer._

"Hall Caine has already given us some very strong and fine work, and
'The Deemster' is a story of unusual power.... Certain passages and
chapters have an intensely dramatic grasp, and hold the fascinated
reader with a force rarely excited nowadays in literature."--_The
Critic._
"One of the strongest novels which has appeared for many a day.
