"Until the Appletons discovered the merits of Maarten Maartens, the foremost of Dutch novelists, it is doubtful if many American readers knew that there were Dutch novelists. His 'God's Fool' and 'Joost Avelingh' made for him an American reputation. To our mind this just published work of his is his best.... He is a master of epigram, an artist in description, a prophet in insight."
"A story of remarkable interest and point." New York Observer. JOOST AVELINGH. By Maarten Maartens. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50. "So unmistakably good as to induce the hope that an acquaintance with the Dutch literature of fiction may soon become more general among us." London Morning Post.
