BATTLEWRACK is that rare thing a man's book that is real and inspired.

BATTLEWRACK

By F. BRITTEN AUSTIN

Price 5/- net.

Mr. Britten Austin's stories and studies of battle incidents are, all of them picturesque, dramatic, and thrilling. There is one story of a U-Boat, another of a Zeppelin, another of the Tanks' arrival at Flers. The stories entitled "The Battery," "Pro Patria," and " The Air Scout " are particularly well done; and the author manages to obtain a wonderful amount of variety.

This book will make its mark. The author, who is, of course, a soldier, has an eye for effect, a sense of the mot juste, and a great technical equipment for his task ; the book is sure-handed and robust.


2nd LIEUTENANT BILLIE IMPETT is a real "discovery"

2nd LIEUTENANT BILLIE IMPETT IMPETT AND HIS ORDERLY

By CAPTAIN EUSTACE AINSWORTH

Price 5/- net.

Lieutenant Billie Impett is "a character" so is his orderly. Captain Eustace Ains worth is a born story-teller; he has style, a keen, observant eye, and a great sense of humour. And he knows what fighting is, for he has fought himself.
