Untitled, single work review
— Review of A Tail of Gold David Hennessey , 1914 single work novel ;

A highly favourable review, which includes an extensive synopsis, of Hennessey's novel. However, the reviewer takes issue with an unspecified 'phrase, which occurs too often to be merely a printer's error' and considers it 'a glaring defect in composition which is not to be tolerated' for it 'will be found to have a most distracting effect upon the reader, forcing him back over lines to pick up sense'.

[Note: By inference, the phrase referred to is possibly that of the title, 'Tail of Gold', which the reviewer seems to imply should be 'Tale of Gold' in several instances.]
