The Road to Paris.
By ROBERT NEILSON STEPHENS, author of "An Enemy to the King,"
"The Continental Dragoon," etc. Illustrated by H. C. Edwards.
1 vol., library 12mo, cloth =$1.50=
An historical romance, being an account of the life of an
American gentleman adventurer of Jacobite ancestry, whose
family early settled in the colony of Pennsylvania. The
scene shifts from the unsettled forests of the then West to
Philadelphia, New York, London, Paris, and, in fact, wherever
a love of adventure and a roving fancy can lead a soldier of
fortune. The story is written in Mr. Stephens's best style, and
is of absorbing interest.
Rose à Charlitte.
An Acadien Romance. By MARSHALL SAUNDERS, author of "Beautiful
Joe," etc. Illustrated by H. De M. Young.
1 vol., library 12mo, cloth =$1.50=
In this novel, the scene of which is laid principally in the
land of Evangeline, Marshall Saunders has made a departure
from the style of her earlier successes. The historical and
descriptive setting of the novel is accurate, the plot is well
conceived and executed, the characters are drawn with a firm
and delightful touch, and the fortunes of the heroine, Rose
à Charlitte, a descendant of an old Acadien family, will be
followed with eagerness by the author's host of admirers.
Bobbie McDuff.
By CLINTON ROSS, author of "The Scarlet Coat," "Zuleika," etc.
Illustrated by B. West Clinedinst.
1 vol., large 16mo, cloth =$1.00=
Clinton Ross is well known as one of the most promising of
recent American writers of fiction, and in the description
of the adventures of his latest hero, Bobbie McDuff, he has
repeated his earlier successes. Mr. Ross has made good use of
the wealth of material at his command. New York furnishes him
the hero, sunny Italy a heroine, grim Russia the villain of
the story, while the requirements of the exciting plot shift
the scene from Paris to New York, and back again to a remote,
almost feudal villa on the southern coast of Italy.
