The Lilac Sunbonnet (1894)Mr. Crockett's 'Lilac Sun-Bonnet' 'needs no bush.' Here is a pretty love tale, and the landscape and rural descriptions carry the exile back into the Kingdom of Galloway. Here, indeed, is the scent of bog-myrtle and peat. After inquiries among the fair, I learn that of all romances, they best love, not 'sociology,' not 'theology,' still less, open manslaughter, for a motive, but, just love's young dream, chapter after chapter. From Mr. Crockett they get what they want, 'hot with,' as Thackeray admits that he liked it.--Mr. Andrew LangDeep Moat Grange (1907)The scenes of this love story, involving murder and mystery, are laid in the north of England, Deep Moat Grange being an old and much neglected estate near a small village.Silver Sand (1914)Historical romance of the youth of John Faa or Silver Sand, Lord and Earl of Little Egypt, gentleman and gypsy.
