12mo, cloth, illustrated by L.J. Bridgman $1.50
Mr. Stevenson’s
hero is a manly lad of sixteen, who is given a
chance as a section-hand
on a big Western railroad, and whose
experiences are as real
as they are thrilling.
“It appeals to every boy of enterprising spirit, and at the same time teaches him some valuable lessons in honor, pluck, and perseverance.” —Cleveland Plain Dealer.
“This is a fine book for boys’ reading, since it impresses a reader anew with the honor and beauty of simple, heroic, seldom-remembered deeds of men who do their duty as a matter of course.”—Christian Register.
“A thrilling story, well told, clean and bright. The whole range of section railroading is covered in the story, and it contains information as well as interest.”—New York Evening Post.
Captain Jack Lorimer. By WINN STANDISH. Square 12mo, cloth decorative. Illustrated by Arthur W. Brown and Louis D. Gowing $1.50
Jack Lorimer, whose adventures have for some time been one of the leading features of the Boston Sunday Herald, is the popular favorite of fiction with the boys and girls of New England, and, now that Mr. Standish has made him the hero of his book, he will soon be a favorite throughout the country.
Jack is a fine example of the all-around American high-school boy. He has the sturdy qualities boys admire, and his fondness for clean, honest sport of all kinds will strike a chord of sympathy among athletic youths.
“No story will appeal more strongly to the wide-awake young chaps blossoming into manhood than ‘Captain Jack Lorimer.’ No reader of the story, from ten to sixteen years of age, will follow his course through these pages without absorbing some of the buoyancy and good nature which Jack displays. He is a clean, wholesome young fellow, an honest, energetic boy who loves sport of all kinds, and who is square in all his dealings.”—Boston Herald.
