"He has invented a situation, quite new in school stories, which is excellently adapted to test the public school system a situation which dominates the whole story from the entrance of the hero to his exit on the last page.… At once a fine tribute to a great school and a great head-master and a fresh and penetrating study of that eternal problem the human boy."—The Spectator.
"It is a boys' tale, the readers of which will not all be boys."—New York Times.

"There is a most delightful boy in 'The Camera Fiend' a charming, public school boy of seventeen who suffers from asthma and quite wins your admiration as he goes wheezing and coughing his plucky way toward duty and excitement. … An excellent book."—New York Evening Post.

"Raffles is amazing; his resource is perfect; he talks like a gentleman and acts like one, except when occupied with pressing business in another man's house at midnight, and naturally he has a 'cool nerve,' a nerve positively arctic. They all have nerves like that, these Raffleses."—New York Tribune.

"These latest adventures of 'Raffles' and 'Bunny' are their most thrilling and exciting ones. The sentimental side of their story has never before been shown so dramatically and romantically, and the suggestion in this book of the final conclusion of their careers cannot but make these stories of the greatest interest to all readers."—Boston Herald.
