ENCHANTED GROUND

An Episode in the Life of a Young Man

By HARRY JAMES SMITH

"An absorbing, dramatic, and sweet story ... a problem novel--with a
solution."--_New York Times._

"One of the strongest American novels that has appeared in several
seasons.... The whole story is on a far higher plane than the ordinary
novel of American life. The main characters are real, but they are
touched with the fire of the spirit."--_San Francisco Chronicle._

"It has a strong vein of sentiment, a flexible and kindly humor, a plot
directly concerned with a pair of young lovers, and a vigorous
style."--_The Nation._

"That it will be a favorite seems to us a safe prediction.... There is
no part of it which, once begun, is likely to be left unread."--_The
Dial._

LEWIS RAND

By MARY JOHNSTON

"One of the strongest works of fiction that has seen the light of day in
America."--_New York Times._

"In 'Lewis Rand' we have historical fiction at its very best, and Miss
Johnston also at the highest point of her inventive, her pictorial and
her constructive skill."--_Boston Transcript._

"The story is a strong one. It provides a vivid presentation of a
deeply interesting period of our national annals, and it throbs with
real life."--_Chicago Dial._

"Aside from its high dramatic quality and tense dramatic interest 'Lewis
Rand' portrays admirably the manners and customs of an important
historical epoch."--_Philadelphia North American._

Illustrated in color by F. C. Yohn.
