Splendid, Interesting, Big Stories
For the present the Adventure Library will be devoted to the publication of stories by William Wallace Cook.The fact that one man wrote all of these stories in no way detracts from their interest, as they are all very different in plot and locality.For example, the action in one story takes place in "The Land of Little Rain;" another deals with adventure on the high seas; another is a good railroad story; others are splendid Western stories; and some are mystery stories. All of them, however, are stories of vigorous adventure drawn true to life, which gives them the thrill that all really good fiction should have.
