Betty Seldon, Patriot
A Revolutionary Tale for Girls
By ADELE E. THOMPSON, Author of “Beck’s Fortune.”
Illustrated by Lilian Crawford True.
12mo. Cloth. 300 pages. $1.25
It is a great deal to say of a book that it is at the same time fascinating and noble. This is what “Betty Seldon, Patriot” is, and in fact no one of the many who read and admired “Beck’s Fortune” would expect a book by Miss Thompson to be otherwise. Betty is a bright Connecticut girl, happily as industrious and filial as she is attractive. Her devotion to her father, a captain in the Continental army, and her experience with a Tory uncle, who appears upon the supposed death of her father and takes her to his home in Pennsylvania, pretending to be her guardian, form the basis of the book. Historical events are accurately traced leading up to the surrender of Cornwallis at Yorktown, with reunion and happiness for all who deserve it. Betty is worth a thousand of the fickle coquette heroines of some latter-day popular novels, and the historical setting of the story is strong and effective.
