_12mo. Cloth. Fully Illustrated_ _50c per Volume_
THE NEWEST BOYS' BOOKS ON THE EUROPEAN WAR, RELATING THE ADVENTURES
OF TWO AMERICAN BOYS AND THEIR EXPERIENCES IN BATTLE AND ON AIR SCOUT
DUTY. ALL PROFUSELY ILLUSTRATED WITH AUTHENTIC DRAWINGS.
=The Boy Volunteers on the Belgian Front=
Describes the adventures of two American boys who were in Europe
when the great war commenced. Their enlistment with Belgian
troops and their remarkable experiences are based upon actual
occurrences and the book is replete with line drawings of
fighting machines, air planes and maps of places where the most
important battles took place and of other matters of interest.
=The Boy Volunteers with the French Airmen=
This book relates the further adventures of the young Americans
in France, where they viewed the fighting from above the firing
lines. From this book the reader gains considerable knowledge of
the different types of air planes and battle planes used by the
warring nations, as all descriptions are illustrated with
unusually clear line drawings.
=The Boy Volunteers with the British Artillery=
How many boys today know anything about the great guns now being
used on so many European battle fronts? Our young friends had the
rare opportunity of witnessing, at first hand, a number of these
terrific duels, and the story which is most fascinatingly told
is illustrated with numerous drawings of the British, French and
German field pieces.
=The Boy Volunteers with the Submarine Fleet=
Our young heroes little expected to be favored with so rare an
experience as a trip under the sea in one of the great
submarines. In this book the author accurately describes the
submarine in action, and the many interesting features of this
remarkable fighting craft are made clear to the reader by a
series of splendid line drawings.
