S. R. CROCKETT JOAN OF THE SWORD HAND. 6s. THE DAILY MAIL.--"A triumph of cheery, resolute narration. The story goes along like a wave, and the reader with it." STRONG MAC. 6s. THE MORNING POST.--"At the very outset the reader is introduced to the two leading characters of what is truly a drama of real life. So vividly is the story told that it often reads like a narrative of things that have actually happened." LITTLE ESSON. 6s. THE SCARBOROUGH POST.--"One of the most popular of Mr. Crockett's books since 'Lilac Sunbonnet.'" MAX PEMBERTON PRO PATRIA. 6s.

"The Long Arm" is unlike any of Mr. Oppenheim's other popular stories. The hero, Mannister, a powerfully drawn character, is the victim of a cruel plot of a band of conspirators.
