RAFAEL SABATINI'S NOVELS
May be had wherever books are sold. Ask for Grosset and Dunlap's list.
Jesi, a diminutive city of the Italian Marches, was the birthplace of Rafael Sabatini, and here he spent his early youth. The city is glamorous with those centuries the author makes live again in his novels with all their violence and beauty.
Mr. Sabatini first went to school in Switzerland and from there to Lycee of Oporto, Portugal, and like Joseph Conrad, he has never attended an English school. But English is hardly an adopted language for him, as he learned it from his mother, an English woman who married the Maestro-Cavaliere Vincenzo Sabatini.
Today Rafael Sabatini is regarded as “The Alexandre Dumas of Modern Fiction.”
MISTRESS WILDING
A romance of the days of Monmouth's rebellion. The action is rapid, its style is spirited, and its plot is convincing.
FORTUNE'S FOOL
All who enjoyed the lurid lights of the French Revolution with Scaramouche, or the brilliant buccaneering days of Peter Blood, or the adventures of the Sea-Hawk, the corsair, will now welcome with delight a turn in Restoration London with the always masterful Col. Randall Holles.
BARDELYS THE MAGNIFICENT
An absorbing story of love and adventure in France of the early seventeenth century.
THE SNARE
It is a story in which fact and fiction are delightfully blended and one that is entertaining in high degree from first to last.
CAPTAIN BLOOD The story has glamor and beauty, and it is told with an easy confidence. As for Blood himself, he is a superman, compounded of a sardonic humor, cold nerves, and hot temper. Both the story and the man are masterpieces, A great figure, a great epoch, a great story.
THE SEA-HAWK
“The Sea-Hawk” is a book of fierce bright color and amazing adventure through which stalks one of the truly great and masterful figures of romance.
SCARAMOUCHE
Never will the reader forget the sardonic Scaramouche, who fights equally well with tongue and rapier, who was 'born wit, the gift of laughter and a sense that the world was mad.”

CHARLES ALDEN SELTZER'S
WESTERN NOVELS
May be had wherever books are sold. Ask for Grosset & Dunlap's list.
The West is Mr. Seltzer's special field. He has a long list of novels under his name in book lists, and they all deal with those vast areas where land is reckoned in miles, not in acres, and where the population per square mile, excluding cattle, is sparse and breathing space is ample. It is the West of an older day than this that Mr. Seltzer handles, as a rule, and a West that few novelists know so well as he.
