THE END OF THE GAME
Reading edition
BY ARTHUR HORNBLOW
THE LITERARY DIGEST
"'The End of the Game' belongs to the school of good old-fashioned fiction which delighted the scant leisure hours of our grandmothers. It is a good healthy tale of normal human happenings, a sort of protest against the decadent type of novel which seems to be widening its empire among us. The characters are good human creatures and not the flat paper dolls found in the pages of so much current fiction."
New York TIMES
"A creditable piece of work. The resemblance of the story to the careers of certain men who have been much in the public eye is not to be denied. One pronounced good quality of the novel is that the author has not hesitated to bring the story to a tragic and logical conclusion. His descriptions of the terrors of modern journalism are not nearly so exaggerated as the reader will probably imagine. The story of the patient wife has a pathos and a realism that strike the keynote of sincerity."
New York WORLD
"Mr. Hornblow has novelized the brain-stormy Pittsburg millionaire and a few other matters that make racy reading."
New York GLOBE
"The 70,000 readers who enjoyed Mr. Hornblow's story 'The Lion and the Mouse' will have a similar treat in 'The End of the Game.'"
Cleveland NEWS
"The author's pictures of New York and Pittsburg are worthy of a place beside the poetic prose of Whitman."
New York EVENING SUN
"If Mr. Hornblow's first book, 'The Lion and the Mouse,' was capitalized Oil on troubled waters, 'The End of the Game' is equally a study in steel."
Savannah (Ga.) NEWS
"An intensely interesting and capitally told story. Mr. Hornblow has something to say and knows how to say it."
BOOK NEWS MONTHLY
"The same verve and rapidity of action that characterized Mr. Hornblow's successful novel written from 'The Lion and the Mouse' are in this new and up-to-date story."
