"Love and the Soul Hunters" is the strongest story John Oliver Hobbes has given us. The heir-apparent of Urseville Beylestein resigns his rank to win the hand of Clementine Gloucester, and sets out for the New World to push his fortunes as a financier. There are some extravagancies in the description of the American millionaire, and Mr. Gloucester's wife is a strange study, but Clementine herself is fascinating enough even to win the heart of a prince, and Prince Paul makes a good choice when he prefers such a woman to a kingdom. The book is less philosophical than The School for Saints, and as a story it has more life and more various interest. --The London Quarterly "Love and the Soul-Hunters" is one of the most amusing books published in a long time; it is full of the clever dialog which the author knows so well how to invent, but it is suffused with a grave tenderness, and, from beginning to end, envelopes the reader in a thoughtful atmosphere.... The author's art is exercised with peculiar delicacy and effect.... Every page is rich in these little touches, the little half-lights and suggestions which reflect not so much the practiced as the instinctively skilful hand. Love and the Soul-Hunters' is a book for mature men and women. To such readers it must bring a keen pleasure, touching them by the insight into human nature which it illustrates, and diverting them with its witty intellectuality." --The New York Tribune. This is a tender and beautiful love story.... Mrs. Craigie has treated it with an originality and sparkling wit which carry the reader delightedly to the end. --British Weekly. It is one of the most absorbing of the new books. It is a book that, once read, is destined never to be forgotten. --The Providence Telegram.
