A story Of America for Amer
leans. In 1t appear the great
Washington. the chivalrous La
FAyette, the benign Franklin,
the traitor Arnold, the voluptu-
airy, Sir Henry Clinton and 9TH
ers, each being an intimate
portrait and each drawn to the
life by the author who has
made a conscientious study Of
the several characters. The
story tells OF stirring times, and
the readers eyes will snap with
patriotic fervor as he follows
the adventures Of Captain
Dressler and the girl to whom
he became devoted. Dramatic
and absorbing. the situations
and action put no strain on the
credulity, but they lack nothing
Of excitement.
The historical background is
accurate, and the atmosphere OF
those days comes to the reader
like the faint scent of old laven-
der. II Is a tale which will stim-
ulate one to turn to history. 1t
Is q tale for these days OF con-
slant war, but its lines are not
Redeemed by frequent gouts Of
blood nor made melodramatic
by mock heroics. It is "Ameri-
ca first" II is a tale everyone
should read.
