THE GAME
_A TRANSCRIPT FROM REAL LIFE_
By JACK LONDON
Author of “The Call of the Wild,” “The Sea-Wolf,” etc.
With Illustrations and Decorations in Colors by Henry Hutt and T. C.
Lawrence
Cloth 12mo $1.50
“The Game” resembles “The Call of the Wild” very strongly in the unity
and rapidity of its action, in its singleness of purpose, and in its
conveyed impression of power. “The Game” is that which takes place
within the squared ring; included in the story is an intensely graphic
portrayal of what the prize ring stands for and means to participants,
spectators, and the general scheme of things.
THE STORM CENTRE
By CHARLES EGBERT CRADDOCK
Author of “The Prophet of the Great Smoky Mountains,” “The Story of Old
Fort Loudon,” etc.
Cloth 12mo $1.50
A war story; but more of flirtation, love, and courtship, than of
fighting or history. It is a simple and pleasing tale of a wounded Union
officer in a household strongly in sympathy with the Confederate cause.
The officer falls in love with the young lady of the house, and the son
of the family, a dashing young Confederate officer, comes back to see
his family. While there the rebel officer secures information that
enables the Southern army to gain an important strategical advantage,
and the Union officer is eventually court-martialled. The tale is light
and entertaining and thoroughly readable, and the background is that
associated with Miss Murfree’s well-earned fame.
