His Neighbors, his Doings and his Reflections in a Bohemian Forest
Village
By MADAM FLORA P. KOPTA, author of "Bohemian Legends and Poems," 12mo,
cloth, gilt top, $1.25
A simple but unique, picturesque and delightful story of peasant life
in a Bohemian shut-in village, "on the edge of the forest." It
introduces English readers to a charming and little-known community,
far removed from towns and cities, but where the duties, desires,
passions and purposes of men and women are just as human and just as
diversified as in the busier haunts of men.
Germany: Her People and their Story
By AUGUSTA HALE GIFFORD. One volume, 8vo, 593 pages, cloth, gilt top,
uncut edges, emblematic cover, fully illustrated, $1.75
The first popular story of Germany, especially prepared for American
readers, and written from an American standpoint. In this light the
book is unique. It stands alone as the latest and most complete, while
it is the briefest and most condensed story of the German Empire, from
its beginnings to its present proud position among the world-leaders.
Mr. Trunnell, Mate of the Ship Pirate
By T. JENKINS HAINS, author of "The Wind-Jammers," "The Wreck of the
Conemaugh," etc. 12mo, cloth, illustrated by Ditzler, $1.25
No more vivid and absorbing sea story has ever been written. Mr.
Hains, with his yarns of the "Wind-jammers," placed himself at once in
the front rank of the tellers of sea tales, and his latest book "Mr.
Trunnell," surpasses his first effort. Mr. Hains knows the sea as one
who has braved all its perils and tested all its adventures. In "Mr.
Trunnell," he has a tale strong in its intensity, vivid in its realism,
novel in plot and action and full of the taste of salt water from first
to last.
The Wind-jammers
By T. JENKINS HAINS. 12mo, cloth, ornamental, $1.25
Mr. Hains is to be congratulated upon writing a better, more natural,
vigorous, and thrilling yarn than any other American writer of this
class of fiction, and whoever reads this book will be likely to wish to
see more of his work.
