THE STORY OF ROLF AND THE VIKING'S BOW
Illustrated. 12mo. $1.35 net
A stirring tale by the author of "The Junior Cup," presenting a vivid
account of the old Norse life and of the people of Iceland.--_Brooklyn
Eagle._
Boys will follow the fortunes of Rolf with ever-increasing attention,
for his skill as a marksman, his intrepidity in scenes of peril, and
his noble character make him a very engaging hero.--_Boston Beacon._
The author of this artistic story of Iceland has caught the spirit of
the times and men he depicts most happily.--_Outlook_, New York.
PELHAM AND HIS FRIEND TIM
Illustrated by Ch. Grunwald. 12mo. $1.35 net
One of the very best boys' books. In the two boys, who are the chief
characters, he has drawn a picture of manliness and honesty. The plot
centres about a mill strike and contains exciting scenes.--_Providence
Journal._
A good, wholesome book for boys, especially to be recommended for the
unobtrusive, matter-of-course way in which it makes character, instead
of social station, the thing that counts.--_New York Times._
HEROES OF ICELAND
Adapted from Dasent's translation of "The Story of Burnt Njal," the
great Icelandic Saga, with a new Preface, Introduction, and Notes.
Illustrated by E. W. D. Hamilton. 12mo. $1.35 net
He has preserved the spirit of the saga in the abridgment, and even
in this form the Northland epic makes better and healthier reading
for boys than most of the books that are written specially for
them.--_New York Sun._
THE REFORM OF SHAUN
Illustrated by Philip R. Goodwin. $1.20 net
Two of the best dog stories that we have read in a long time.--_The
Churchman_, New York.
