THE YOUNG BANDMASTER; or, Concert Stage and Battlefield
In this tale Captain Bonehill touches upon a new field. The hero is a
youth with a passion for music, who, compelled to make his own way in
the world, becomes a cornetist in an orchestra and works his way up,
first to the position of a soloist, and then to that of leader of a
brass band. He is carried off to sea and falls in with a secret-service
cutter bound for Cuba, and while in that island joins a military band
which accompanied our soldiers in the never-to-be-forgotten attack on
Santiago. A mystery connected with the hero's inheritance adds to the
interest of the tale.
OFF FOR HAWAII; or, The Mystery of a Great Volcano
Here we have fact and romance cleverly interwoven. Several boys start
on a tour of the Hawaiian Islands. They have heard that there is a
treasure located in the vicinity of Kilauea, the largest active volcano
in the world, and go in search of it. Their numerous adventures will be
followed with much interest.
A SAILOR BOY WITH DEWEY; or, Afloat in the Philippines
The story of Dewey's victory in Manila Bay will never grow old, but
here we have it told in a new form--not as those in command witnessed
the contest, but as it appeared to a real, live American youth who was
in the navy at the time. Many adventures in Manila and in the interior
follow, giving true-to-life scenes from this remote portion of the
globe. A book that should be in every boy's library.
WHEN SANTIAGO FELL; or, The War Adventures of Two Chums
Captain Bonehill has never penned a better tale than this stirring
story of adventures in Cuba. Two boys, an American and his Cuban chum,
leave New York
