A Vivacious Romance of Revolutionary Days
Alice of Old Vincennes
Mr. Thompson, whose delightful writings in prose and verse have made his reputation national has achieved his master stroke of genius in this historical novel of revolutionary days in Indiana.—The Atlanta Constitution.
There are three great chapters of fiction: Scott’s tournament on Ashby field, General Wallace’s chariot race, and now Maurice Thompson’s duel scene and the raising of Alice’s flag over old Fort Vincennes.—Denver Daily News.
More original than “Richard Carvel,” more cohesive than “To Have and to Hold,” more vital than “Janice Meredith,” such is Maurice Thompson’s superb American romance, “Alice of Old Vincennes.” It is in addition, more artistic and spontaneous than any of its rivals.—Chicago Times-Herald.
