Books that make the nerves tingle–romance and adventure of the best type–wholesome for family reading
THE PILLAR OF LIGHT
“Breathless interest” is a hackneyed phrase, but every reader of “The Pillar of Light” who has red blood in his or her veins, will agree that the trite saying applies to the attention which this story commands.–New York Sun.
THE WINGS OF THE MORNING
“Here is a story filled with the swing of adventure. There are no dragging intervals in this volume: from the moment of their landing on the island until the rescuing crew find them there, there is not a dull moment for the young people–nor for the reader either.”–New York Times.
THE KING OF DIAMONDS
Verily, Mr. Tracy is a prince of story-tellers. His charm it a little hard to describe, but it is as definite as that of a rainbow. The reader is carried along by the robust imagination of the author.–San Francisco Examiner.
