A VIVACIOUS ROMANCE OF REVOLUTIONARY DAYS
ALICE of OLD VINCENNES
By
MAURICE THOMPSON
The Atlanta Constitution says:
“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 the West.”
The Denver Daily News says:
“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.
The Chicago Record-Herald says:
“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.”
