“ The cleverness of them all is extraordinary— Guardian. 
“ The volume proves how little and how great a thing it is to write a 
‘ Pseudonym.' Four whole ‘ Pseudonyms ’ . . . are easily contained 
within its not extravagant limits, and these four little books have given 
John Oliver Hobbes a recognized position as a master of epigram and 
narrative comedy.”— St. James's Gazette , 
“ As her star has been sudden in its rise so may it stay long with us ! 
Some day she may give us something better than these tingling, pulsing, 
mocking, epigrammatic morsels.”— Times . 
“ There are several literary ladies, of recent origin, who have tried 
to come up to the society ideal ; but John Oliver Hobbes is by far the 
best writer of them all, by far the most capable artist in fiction. . . . 
She is clever enough for anything.”— Saturday Review. 
THE HERB MOON 
BY 
JOHN OLIVER HOBBES 
Thud Edition , Crown 8 vo., cloth , 6 s. 
“ The jaded reader who needs sauce for his literary appetite cannot 
do better than buy ‘ The Herb Moon.’ ” —Literary World. 
11 A book to hail with more than common pleasure. The epigram¬ 
matic quality, the power of rapid analysis and brilliant presentation 
are there, and added to these a less definable quality, only to be 
described as charm. . . . ‘ The Herb Moon ’ is as clever as most of 
its predecessors, and far less artificial.”— Athenceum.
