The Young Trailers.
Illustrated. 12mo. Ornamental cloth, $1.50.
A boys’ story, telling of the first settlers in Kentucky. Their
pleasures and hardships, their means of protection, methods of
obtaining food and ammunition are described in a way that makes the
reader live with them. The life led by the young hero--his fights with
Indians and his captivity among them--is vividly pictured.
The Wilderness Road.
A Romance of St. Clair’s Defeat and Wayne’s Victory. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50.
“That Mr. Altsheler has caught the wild, free spirit of the life which
he depicts is evident on every page, and nowhere more so than in one of
his final chapters, ‘The Meeting of the Chiefs,’ where he vitalizes the
life-and-death struggle of a friendly and a hostile Indian.”--_New York
Mail and Express._
In Circling Camps.
A Romance of the American Civil War. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50.
“We do not often get as fine a picture as that which Mr. Altsheler
paints. The tale covers the period from the election and inauguration
of Lincoln until the surrender of Lee and the entrance of the Northern
army into Richmond.... Every good American who enjoys the smell of
powder and the crack of the rifle will appreciate the chapters that
describe the battle of Gettysburg.”--_The Bookman._

presentation of the American feeling toward England during our second
conflict.”--_Boston Herald._

“The story is told in such a simple, direct way that it holds the
reader’s interest to the end, and gives a most accurate picture of the
times.”--_Boston Transcript._

“Taken altogether, ‘The Sun of Saratoga’ is the best historical novel
of American origin that has been written for years, if not, indeed, in
a fresh, simple, unpretending, unlabored, manly way, that we have ever
read.”--_New York Mail and Express._
