"The readers of 'The Heart of Rome' can have nothing but thanks for its author. One trembles to perceive how easily he could, as he says, have brought his people to 'awful grief'. It is a rare merit that he resisted the temptation to rend our souls, and permits us to close his fascinating story with a light heart" - from the New York Times Review, October 31, 1903 ; 8vo; [viii], 396, 4 pp of advertisements, [2] pages.
