4 BLACKIE & SON'S BOOKS FOR YOUNG PEOPLE.

 

BY G. A. HENTY.

“ Among writers of stories of adventure for boys Mr. Henty stands in the very
first rank.”—Academy.

Under Drake’s Flag: A Tale of the Spanish Main. By
_G,. A. Henty. Illustrated by 12 page Pictures by Gorpon Browne.
Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, 6s.

“There is not a dull chapter, nor, indeed, a dull page in the book; but the
author has‘so carefully worked up his subject that the exciting deeds of his
heroes are never incongruous or absurd.”— Observer.

Bonnie Prince Charlie: A Tale of Fontenoy and Culloden.
By G. A. Henry. With 12 page Illustrations by Gorpon Brownz.
Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, 6s.

“Ronald, the hero, is very like the hero of Quentin Durward. The 1ad’s
journey across France with his faithful attendant Malcolm, and his hairbreadth
escapes from the machinations of his father’s enemies, make up as good a
narrative of the kind as we have ever read. For freshness of treatment and
variety of incident, Mr. Henty has here surpassed himself.” —Spectator.

For the Temple: A Tale of the Fall of Jerusalem. By
G. A. Henry. With 10 page Illustrations by 8. J. Sonomon, and
a Coloured Map. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, 6s.

“Mr. Henty’s graphic prose pictures of the hopeless Jewish resistance to Roman
sway adds another leaf to his record of the famous wars of the world. The book
is one of Mr. Henty’s cleverest efforts.” —Graphie.

True to the Old Flag: A Tale of the American War of
Independence. By G. A. Henry. With 12 page Illustrations by
Gorpon Browne. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, 6s.

‘* Does justice to the pluck and determination of the British soldiers. The son
of an American loyalist, who remains true to our flag, falls among the hostile red-
skins in that very Huron country which has been endeared to us by the exploits
of Hawkeye and Chingachgook.”—The Times. E

The Lion of the North: A Tale of Gustavus Adolphus and
the Wars of Religion. By G. A. Henry. With 12 page Pictures
by J. Scuénpzre. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, 6s.

“A praiseworthy attempt to interest British youth in the great deeds of the
Scotch Brigade in the wars of Gustavus Adolphus. Mackay, Hepburn, and Munro
live again in Mr, Henty’s pages, as those deserve to live whose disciplined bands
formed really the germ of the modern British army.”—Atheneum.

The Young Carthaginian: A Story of the Times of
Hannibal. By G. A. Henry. With 12 page Illustrations by C. J.
STANILAND, R.I. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, 6s.

“The effect of an interesting story, well constructed and vividly told, is en-
hanced by the picturesque quality of the scenic background. From first to last
nothing stays the interest of the narrative. It bears us along as on a stream
whose current varies in direction, but never loges its force.” —Saturday Review
