SWARTHMORE PRESS BOOKS
Mr. Sterling Sticks it Out
By HAROLD BEGBIE
Author of “Broken Earthenware,”
“Living Water,” etc, etc., etc.
Crown 8vo. 6_s._ net.
_This_ powerful and much-discussed novel, though written in the winter
of 1917, could not be published until recently owing to the action
of the Censors. It is a study of the character of two brothers, both
of whom are faithful to their ideals--the one dying on the field of
battle, and the other falling a victim to his harsh treatment in prison
as a Conscientious Objector. The story has been splendidly received,
and the whole press has joined in condemning in most indignant terms
the folly of the Press Bureau in withholding the book so long from
circulation. Mr. Begbie himself, in a vigorous Preface, gives a
detailed account of his negotiations with the Authorities, and this
lends additional interest to what is not only a fascinating novel, but
a work that will possess much historical value to the future student of
England during the Great War.
