N. Y., Scribner's Sons, 1898 $1.25
The plot is an exceedingly clever and original one, with a touch of grim humor woven into its concoction. The story admits of many dramatic situations and thrilling scenes.
N. Y., Scribner's Sons, 1897 $1.50
The characters are all flung into an adventure the thrill of which Mr. Davis has communicated to his pages as though without an effort, and the book is closed with a feeling of complete satisfaction.

The stories are clever and interesting. The first, "The reporter who made himself king," is an absurd narrative, very bright and amusing.

The scenes are mostly in New York; time and events being strongly in touch with the present.
Il.N. Y., Macmillan, n. d. $1.75
Too well known as a classic to require description.
