A narrative of adventure of the most romantic kind.

"Has a freshness, a freedom, a sense of sun and wind and the open air, which make it irresistible."--_National Observer._ C. J. CUTCLIFFE HYNE The Captured Cruiser: or, Two Years from Land. With 6 page Illustrations by F. BRANGWYN. 3s. 6d. The central incidents deal with the capture, during the war between Chili and Peru, of an armed cruiser. The heroes and their companions break from prison in Valparaiso, board this warship in the night, overpower the watch, escape to sea under the fire of the forts, and finally, after marvellous adventures, lose the cruiser among the icebergs near Cape Horn. "The two lads and the two skippers are admirably drawn. Mr. Hyne has now secured a position in the first rank of writers of fiction for boys."--_Spectator._ -- Stimson's Reef: With 4 page Illustrations by W. S. STACEY. 2s. 6d. This is the extended log of a cutter which sailed from the Clyde to the Amazon in search of a gold reef.

"Few stories come within hailing distance of Stimson's Reef in startling incidents and hairbreadth 'scapes. It may almost vie with Mr. R. L. Stevenson's _Treasure Island_."--_Guardian._ * * * * * [Illustration: _From ONE OF THE FIGHTING SCOUTS_ BY CAPT. F. S. BRERETON (See page 11)] * * * * * R.
