WHEN Frances Hodgson Burnett published That Lass o' Lowrie's the fresh and remarkable power shows in the book met with one of those immediate and universal recognitions that are as rare as they are decisive, and that arouse the strongest expectations as to an author's further work. The publication of a second novel from her pen has become an event of more than an ordinary moment."Haworth's, like the former novel, is a Lancashire story - its scene laid in the great ironworks, whose owner, Jem Haworth, is a hero o of the book, and a character drawn with a force behind which it is difficult to imagine a woman's hand. Young Murdoch, the American of the story, will dispute with this strongly-marked, rough-hewn manufacturer the chief place in the reader's interest. In Rachel Ffrench appears a type of woman's character which Mrs. Burnett has not given us before, and which shows a new side of her peculiarly dramatic power."Finally, the force and intensity of the action of Haworth's will fully justify the estimate of even Mrs. Burnett's strongest admirers."-The North American Review"Haworth's is a product of genius of a very high order-a piece of work which will hold a permanent place in literature; one of those masterly performances that rise wholly above the plane of light literature upon which novels are generally placed."-The Evening Post"It is but faint praise to speak of 'Haworth's' as merely a good novel. It is one of the few great novels. As a story it is alive throughout with a thrilling interest which does not flat; from beginning to end, and, besides the story, there is in it a wonderfully clever study of human nature."-The Hartford Courant"Haworth's will unquestionably be acknowledged one of the great literary achievements of the day. The chief feature is its intense dramatic power. It consists almost wholly of vividly-presented pictures, which so impress themselves on the mind Books History~~General Haworths~~Frances-Hodgson-Burnett Nabu Press This is a reproduction of a book published before 1923.
