SOME NOTABLE AMERICAN FICTION
IN
APPLETONS' TOWN AND COUNTRY LIBRARY.


Each, 12mo, cloth, $1.00; paper, 50 cents.


A COLONIAL FREE-LANCE. By Chauncey C.
Hotchkiss, author of "In Defiance of the King."

"We have had stories of the Revolution dealing with its statesmen, its soldiers, and its home life, but the good books relating to adventure by sea have been few and far between. The best of these for many a moon is 'A Colonial Free-Lance' There is a rattle and dash, a continuity of adventure that constantly chains the reader's attention and makes the book delightful reading."—Philadelphia Inquirer.


THE SUN OF SARATOGA. By Joseph A.
Altsheler.

"Taken altogether,' The Sun of Saratoga' is the best historical novel of American origin that has been written for years, if not, indeed, in a fresh, simple, unpretending, unlabored, manly way, that we have ever read."—New York Mail and Express.


MASTER ARDICK, BUCCANEER. By F. H.
Costello.

"This story is one of the real old-fashioned kind that novel readers will take delight in perusing. The characters are bold, knightly, and chivalrous, and delightful entertainers"—Boston Courier.


THE INTRIGUERS. A Novel. By John D.
Barry

"The story is a wholesome, enlivening bit of romance. It rings pure and sweet, and is most happy in its characterizations."—Boston Herald.

"A bright society novel, sparkling with wit and entertaining from beginning to end."—Boston Times.


IN DEFIANCE OF THE KING. A Romance of
the American Revolution. By Chauncey C. Hotchkiss.

"Thrills from beginning to end with the spirit of the Revolution. . . . His whole story is so absorbing that you will sit up far into the night to finish it, and lay it aside with the feeling that you have seen a gloriously true picture of the Revolution."—Boston Herald.

IN OLD NEW ENGLAND. The Romance of a
Colonial Fireside. By Hezekiah Butterworth.

"We do not remember any other volume which holds within its covers a series of such charming legends and traditions of New England's earlier history. . . . 'In Old New England' possesses a charm rare indeed. It will be welcomed by young and old alike."—New York Mail and Express.
