Description
Review of The Banner of Blue (Hodder and Stoughton, 1903, 6s.). Situates the novel within the tradition of old Scots history stimulated by Sir Walter Scott, noting the difficulty of writing interestingly about Scottish religious controversies of the past 150 years. Credits the novel as above average for its picturesque treatment of conflicting families, but criticises Crockett's tendency to write arch romantic passages. Mixed-content page: preceded by review of With Macdonald in Uganda and followed by review of The Arcadians by J. S. Fletcher.
