Mrs. Gertrude Atherton's treatise, in the form of a novel, on international marriages has been widely and favorably reviewed. The "Saturday Review's" critic prefaces his praise by recalling the "crude vulgarity of "Patience Sparhawk," a work which, he thinks, in no wise indicated the advent of that first-rate woman-novelist which America "has long wanted." But "Transplanted" shows a great advance. He writes: "The plot might easily have been stronger, especially in its final catastrophe; at least four or five subsidiary characters could well be spared, and Mrs. Atherton's narrative style lapses from its usual lucid correctness frequently enough to exasperate the English reader. These things, however, should count but small obstacles in the way of Mrs. Atherton's progress towards the distinction we believe to be waiting for her, and we base our belief much less on her present power to tell clearly an interesting story and to draw credible characters than on her very singular comprehension of the two widely sundered families of the Anglo-Saxon race,"
