The New Novel by the Author Of
1.-THE Crisis, ETC., Mr.. Wins
ton Churchill 1.-THE Crossing.


ton Churchill "The Crossing.
A vigorous story of the times
when North and South Carolina
were on the frontier, and the
Cumberland mountains the wes-
tern wall of the new nation. A
thoroughly American novel in its
spirit which extended this coun-
tW's boundaries west to the Mis-
sissippi in the face of hostile In
dams and the diplomacy of three
great European nations.
Pioneer life and the courageous
part that women played in it, the
adventurous life of the back
woodsman, the scout, were never
pictured with stronger interest
than in the chapters which tell
how Davy and Polly Ann made
their way across the mountains to
join the little force which was
advancing on Kaskaskia under
the leadership of George Rogers
Clark.
In point of historical time these
scenes follow those in which Rich
ard Carvel played his part. Il
