A lively, unaffected, and interesting story of good craftsmanship, showing imagination and insight, with both vivid and dramatic qualities.

The scene is laid in Ireland and in France, the time is the William of Orange period, and deals with the most cruel persecution against the Catholics of Ireland.

“The great charm of the story is that it is so essentially Irish.  Country and people are so lovingly, so feelingly, so understanding described.  The characters are strikingly original creations, finely conceived and consistently developed.  Its literary style is all that the most critical would ask.”—­Baltimore Sun.
