The Noank's Log: A Privateer of the Revolution
Stoddard, William O.
United States -- History -- Revolution, 1775-1783 -- Juvenile fiction
By ROUNSEVELLE WILDMAN, U.S. Consul-General at Hong Kong; author of
"Tales of the Malayan Coast," etc. 12mo, cloth, gilt top, $1.00.
Mr. Wildman was at one time editor of a prominent magazine on the
Pacific coast. He here presents, in a charming and attractive volume,
the talks on men and things that occupied himself and his friends--the
Contributor, the Poet, the Reader, the Parson, the Office Boy and
others as, day by day, they met to discuss, dissect and talk over the
world and its happenings as these appeared to the "Senate" of the
editor's sanctum. It is a book that will be found at once
entertaining, amusing, suggestive, philosophic and delightfully real.

A notable collection of Malayan stories and sketches reproducing both
the atmosphere and flavor of the Orient, and emphasized also by a dash
