"As a land pirate Mannering was a marvel of resource, but as a sea-going
buccaneer he is almost a miracle of devilish ingenuity. His exploits are
wonderful and plausible, for he avails himself of every modern device
and applies recent inventions to the accomplishment of all his pet
schemes."—_Chicago Evening Post_.
*The Lady of the Blue Motor*
Cloth decorative, with a colored frontispiece by John C. Frohn . . .
$1.50
The Lady of the Blue Motor is an audacious heroine who drove her
mysterious car at breakneck speed. Her plea for assistance in an
adventure promising more than a spice of danger could not of course be
disregarded by any gallant fellow motorist. Across France they tore and
across the English Channel. There, the escapade past, he lost her. Mr.
Paternoster, however, allows the reader to follow their separate
adventures until the Lady of the Blue Motor is found again and properly
vindicated of all save womanly courage and affection. A unique romance,
one continuous exciting series of adventure.
