Harold Bell Wright
Harold Bell Wright - The Winning of Barbara Worth, Their Yesterdays, & The Uncrowned King
eBook
(Omnibus Select Feb. 6, 2009)
Three full length novels collected in one edition optimized for the Kindle.
The Uncrowned King
"The Crown is not the kingdom, nor is one King because he wears a Crown." --From "The Uncrowned King".
"It embodies the aspiration, civic and moral, of the present day."--New York Tribune.
"Beautiful both in language and in sentiment."--Chicago News.
"It represents dreams of artistic magnificence."--Buffalo Evening News.
"The secret of his power is the same God-given secret that inspired Shakespeare and upheld Dickens."--Philadelphia Sunday Dispatch.
"It is the greatest story since Bunyan's 'Pilgrim's Progress.'"--Grand Rapids Herald.
"It is a classic in nature and spirit and rendering."--Omaha World-Herald.
"The language throughout is exquisite--such as one might expect of Henry Van Dyke."--Richmond Journal.
"It is an insight into the temple of truth to be found in every man's life if he looks for it."--Wilmington News.
"It is beautiful in its wording, almost poetry."--Birmingham Ledger.
"Harold Bell Wright has given to the world a literary gem that will live."--Oregon Journal.
THE WINNING OF BARBARA WORTH
"It is a novel with 'body,' with a large and timely idea back of it, with sound principles under it, and with a good crescendo of dramatic thrills."--Chicago Record-Herald.
"To the reader the characters will appear as real as friends they know--all of their aims, and likes, and hatreds being portrayed as true to life as snapshots caught by moving-picture cameras."--Boston Globe.
"The characters take the reader with them wherever they go, and they are characters that seem to have temporarily stepped from real life into the pages of the book."--Pittsburg Chronicle-Telegraph.
"The romance of the novel is told in a very charming love story which has 'Barbara Worth' for its inspiration. With her winning the author has deftly interwoven an epic of national reclamation work and present-day good business."--Richmond Times-Dispatch.
"With a vividness that assumes reality Mr. Wright shows how capital may be used to gain its end and at the same time save the community and still be 'good business'."--Omaha Bee.
"'The Calling of Dan Matthews' was a fine tale; 'The Shepherd of the Hills' was an inspiration. And now he sends us 'The Winning of Barbara Worth'--the best thing he has done so far * * * a twentieth century epic."--Cleveland Plain Dealer.
THEIR YESTERDAYS
"It is a book embodying high ideals for men and women, and one that will stimulate young men and women toward pure and noble love."--Baltimore Sun.
"'Their Yesterdays,' by Harold Bell Wright, is a really great book. You feel better, you feel refreshed, and you feel a desire to drop to your knees and thank Almighty God for such a book and for permitting you to read it."--Memphis News Scimitar.
"This is the gentle story of the love of a man and a woman in which the vigor of 'That Printer of Udell's,' the kindliness of 'The Shepherd of the Hills,' the power of 'Dan Matthews' and the grace of 'Barbara Worth' are all woven into a strain more delicate and more beautiful than this great writer has ever before penned. Through this medium has Mr. Wright told more plainly than before the inmost secrets and joys of his big heart."--Boston Globe.
"Some one has called Harold Bell Wright 'the apostle of the wholesome' in fiction, and his latest volume, 'Their Yesterdays,' certainly bears out his claim to the title. Also it shows the man's remarkable genius. We may liken the perusal of the book to listening to some magnificent organ played soft and low by a master hand. And, as one never wearies of gazing upon great paintings nor of listening to the uplifting strains of fine music so one reads this volume with deep appreciation and pays the tribute of regret when it is ended."--Nashville Tennessean.
The Uncrowned King
"The Crown is not the kingdom, nor is one King because he wears a Crown." --From "The Uncrowned King".
"It embodies the aspiration, civic and moral, of the present day."--New York Tribune.
