The dreary March evening is rapidly passing from murky gloom to obscurity. Gusts of icy rain and sleet are sweeping full against a man who, though driving, bows his head so low that he cannot see his horses. The patient beasts, however, plod along the miry road, unerringly taking their course to the distant stable door. The highway sometimes passes through a grove on the edge of a forest, and the trees creak and groan as they writhe in the heavy blasts. In occasional groups of pines there is sighing and moaning almost human in suggestiveness of trouble. Never had Nature been in a more dismal mood, never had she been more prodigal of every element of discomfort, and never had the hero of my story been more cast down in heart and hope than on this chaotic day which, even to his dull fancy, appeared closing in harmony with his feelings and fortune.

"The more I think over the book the better I like it in all its parts. Upon the whole I think Mr. Roe has written the best American novel that has been published this year." -Julian Hawthorne, New York World "Mr. Roe is, without doubt, the most popular of living American novelists. He is a straightforward, honest, hearty writer, who knows what constitutes a good story; and given a good story, such as his last one, 'He Fell in Love with His Wife,' he can tell it better than any other American writer." -R. H. Stoddard, The Mail and Express "The author proves himself a close student of the workings of the mind and affections. The story is healthful, true to life, fine in its humor, and thoroughly readable." -Boston Advertiser "A story about plain country people; the experiences which it describes are such as might be in any country town; the emotions with which it is concerned are not too fine for everyday people. It treats familiar forms of life and types of character with realistic fidelity, and presents conduct in a light which every reader will declare to be natural. Moreover, it contains an abundance of humor, of the obvious and farcical variety, which always commands the most general appreciation. With these qualities to recommend it, we need hardly say that it is a very readable book. Without sensational incidents, or storms of dubious passion, or perverse puzzles of morality, it exhibits a striking picture of homely life, and conveys a sensible lesson: and it never lapses into dullness." -New York Tribune
