Katrine A Novel
9.5分
Elinor Macartney Lane
Romantic novel first published in 1909. ""The Singing Woman," Katrine; her beauty, her fearlessness, her loyalty, her voice of gold-it seems as if only one lost to caution and heedless of consequence would undertake her history expecting it to be believed."

Nancy Stair A Novel
6.0分
Elinor Macartney Lane
Nancy Stair is a Biographical book. Nancy as a poet; the heart of the matter with him being to commend her English verses, as well as those in " gude braid Scot". With these accounts to be secured so easily it may seem presumptuous, as well as superfluous, for me to undertake a third. I state at the outset, therefore, that it is beyond my ambition and my abilities to add a word to stories told so well. Nor do I purpose to mention either the work on the bum or Nancy's song-making, save when necessary for clearness. For me, however, the life of Nancy Stair has a far deeper significance than that set forth by either of these gifted authors. My knowledge of her was naturally of the most intimate; I watched her grow from a wonderful child into a wonderful woman; and saw her, with a man's education, none but men for friends, and no counselings save from her own heart, solve most wisely for the race the problem put to every woman of gift; and with sweetest reasoning and no bitter renouncings enter the kingdom of great womanhood.

Esther – a book for girls
9.5分
Rosa Nouchette Carey
"I was always sorry that my name was Esther not that I found fault with the name itself, but it was too grave, too full of meaning for such an insignificant person. Some one who was learned in such matters-I think it was Allan-told me once that it meant a star, or good fortune."

Gawayne and the Green Knight A Fairy Tale
7.8分
Charlton Miner Lewis
Arms and the man I sing,—not as of old,The Mantuan bard his mighty verse unrolled,But in such humbler strains as may beseem,Light changes rung on a fantastic theme.My tale is ancient, but the sense is new,Replete with monstrous fictions, yet half true;And, if you'll follow till the story's done,I promise much instruction, and some fun.
