_Dr. J. R. Miller_ says: “Bright and short and full of illustrations
from actual life, they are just the sort that will help young men in
the home in school among associates and in business.”
BIOGRAPHY
_CHARLES G. TRUMBULL_
Anthony Comstock, Fighter
Illustrated, 12mo, cloth, net $1.25.
An authorized biography of this great fighter for purity. The story
is one of life-and-death adventure, moral and physical heroism, and
incomparable achievement. During the thirty years in which Mr. Comstock
has been working for the suppression of vice he has destroyed over 43
tons of vile books, 28,425 pounds of stereotype plates, two and a half
million obscene pictures and 12,945 negatives. The detailed account of
how all this was done is a most thrilling and remarkable story.
_FRANK J. CANNON――DR. GEORGE L. KNAPP_
Brigham Young and His Mormon Empire
Illustrated, 8vo, cloth, net $1.50.
Ex-Senator Cannon’s personal acquaintance with this apostle of the
Mormon Church and his knowledge of the religion and the people gained
by having been born and brought up in the heart of Mormondom, give more
than usual authority and interest to this biography. This life story
of the man who founded a Mohammedan kingdom in a puritan republic sets
forth in true perspective, in impartial and unbiased manner, the facts
about one of the most romantic and interesting characters in American
history.
_FRANCES WILLARD_
Frances Willard: Her Life and Her Work
By Ray Strachey. With an Introduction by Lady Henry Somerset.
Illustrated, 8vo, cloth, net $1.50.
A notable new life of the great temperance advocate written by an
English woman from an entirely new standpoint. Mrs. Strachey, the
granddaughter of the author of “A Christian’s Secret of a Happy Life,”
had immediate access to Miss Willard’s letters, journals and papers,
and the benefit of her grandmother’s advice and knowledge.
Israel Zangwill says of the book, “A masterpiece of condensation, an
adequate biography of perhaps the greatest woman America has produced.
Nobody can read this book without becoming braver, better, wiser.”
_MRS. S. MOORE SITES_
Nathan Sites:
Introduction by Bishop W. F. McDowell. Oriental Hand-Painted
Illustrations, gilt top, net $1.50.
This is one of the notable books of the year. China looms large in
current political and religious interest, so that this life story of
one who for nearly half a century has been closely identified with
social and religious reform in that country must have a large place in
current literature.
