"Some one has said that there are three loves which make and keep the world: the love which makes man and woman one; the love that binds families into nations; the love that draws the world to God; that each is justified in its own immortality; and that all of life worth living must proceed from one of these. In this latest addition to The Friendly Library have been gathered together many of the most beautiful and interesting bits of literature touching the first of these. The Selections are grouped under the headings as, First Love, Famous Lovers, Love's Comedies, Love's Adventures, Love's Tragedies, Love Letters, Love Songs, Love's Enemies, Love's Philosophy, Love in Many Modes, the Light that Failed, and Love Triumphant. Each section is peceded by a full-page drawing and table of contents with decorated border. The attractive appearance of the book is that of the earlier volumes of The Friendly Library."Duluth News.
