The Gold Sickle;
...OR...
Hena the Virgin of the Isle of Sen.
By EUGENE SUE.
Translated from the original French
By DANIEL DE LEON.
This story is the first of the gems in the necklace of gems
that Eugene Sue felicitously named "The Mysteries of the
People; or The History of a Proletarian Family Across the Ages."
It is a story of Druid Gaul, captivating in its simplicity and
superbly preluding the grand drama that is gradually unfolded
from story to story, ending in the great French Revolution.

THE PILGRIM'S SHELL
----OR----
FERGAN THE QUARRYMAN
By Eugene Sue.
Translated By Daniel De Leon.
283 pp., on fine book paper, cloth 75 cents.
This great historical story by the eminent
French writer is one of the majestic
series that cover the leading and successive
episodes of the history of the human
race. The novel treats of the feudal
system, the first Crusade and the rise of
the Communes in France. It is the only
translation into English of this masterpiece
of Sue.
The New York Sun says:
Eugene Sue wrote a romance which seems to have disappeared in a curious
fashion, called "Les Mysteres du Peuple." It is the story of a Gallic
family through the ages, told in successive episodes, and, so far as we
have been able to read it, is fully as interesting as "The Wandering
Jew" or "The Mysteries of Paris." The French edition is pretty hard to
find, and only parts have been translated into English. We don't know
the reason. One medieval episode, telling of the struggle of the
communes for freedom, is now translated by Mr. Daniel De Leon, under the
title "The Pilgrim's Shell" (New York Labor News Co.). We trust the
success of his effort may be such as to lead him to translate the rest
of the romance. It will be the first time the feat has been done in
English.
