EDWARD LUCAS WHITES ro-
nance OF ancient Rome, "Andi-
vius Hedulio." Ob. p. Dutton a Coz.
is a story full OF thrilling adventures
set In scenes as gorgeous and as
rapidly changing as a Kaleidoscope.
Set In Rome In the second century
its hero. the Andivius Hedulio who
gives the book It's title. tells Il In
the first person, and an amazing
tale It Is. lie Is young Roman
dandy. one Of the set OF rich and
fashionable mobiles who circled
around the athletic young Emperor.
Commodus. master OF the world. He
has an estate In the Sabine hills.
he has income from other properties.
he expects soon TO marry a lovely,
wealthy and fashionable young
widow, one OF the matrimonial prizes
OF the most select Roman society.
Then, suddenly, in the midst OF all
these dazzling surroundings and
prospects,. comes disaster. A series
OF chance happenings subjects him
to suspicion and the only possibility
OF saving his life is 10 make 1t ap-
pear that he Is dead and TO sink
into oblivion.
So in disguise he sets forth upon
wanderings that carry him over al
most all the Roman Empire. which
was the whole OF the known world
Of that day. into slavery. whose
brand he carries forever after, into
hair-raising adventures and dangers
and out OF them. only TO fall into
other and greater ones.
The story is a wonderful whirlpool
rush of one perilous, exciting, breath
less adventure after another, among
bandits in the mountains. among
the animals of the Colosseum as
their tender. in the arena where he
is sentenced to punishment by the
lions and tigers. in the torture cham
ber to prove his guilt for murder.
Through one or another phase of
the Roman life OF the time he goes,
from the highest TO the lowest and
back again. and every one of them
is portrayed with full coloring. ac-
curately. vividly, in its true grandeur
or misery. For the author has been
for many years a student of Roman
life, history and literature. Read
ing the story is like living the life
OF that day. in all OF its many
phases.
Mr.. Whites previous historical
romances. "El Supreme" and THE
Unwilling Vestal." the former a
tale OF South America, and the lat
ter OF ancient Rome. have proved
to many a reader how skillfully,
vividly and truthfully he can make
a long-dead age live again. Very
interestingly, the end.papers of the
volume are maps, one Of Rome and
the other OF the Roman Empire,
showing Andivius Hedulio's wander
ings.
DOT ALIENS THE syrens'"
Doubleday, Page & Coz is a
well-written story which holds much
in the way Of light entertainment,
but for the serious reader, and they
are many in these parlous times,
the book is apt to prove unconvinc-
ing under analysis. That is, as a
story of adventure 1t is not adven-
turous enough. and as a study in
character it touches only the sur
face.
dramatically, the novel treats OF
the call of adventure to one pur-
suing the even tenor OF his ways.
