Winefred: A Story of the Chalk Cliffs
Baring-Gould, S. (Sabine)
English fiction
A stirring romance of the days of Charles I. and Cromwell in England
and Ireland. In its general character the book invites comparison with
Scott's "Waverley." It well sustains the reputation gained by Captain
Martin from "The Knight of King's Guard."
=The Flame of Life.= (IL FUOCO.) Translated from the Italian of
Gabriel D'Annunzio, author of "Triumph of Death," etc., by KASSANDRA
VIVARIA, author of "Via Lucis."
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, 350 pages $1.50
This is the first volume in the Third Trilogy, "The Romances of the
Pomegranate," of the three announced by the great Italian writer. We
were fortunate in securing the book, and also in securing the services
as translator of the talented author of "Via Lucis," herself an Italian
by birth.
