Whitefoots, who had been placed by Cromwell over certain domains of the
Davenants. In the children the spirit of contention has given place to
friendship, and though they take opposite sides in the struggle between
James and William, their good-will and mutual service are never
interrupted, and in the end the Davenants come happily to their own
again.

"An extremely spirited story, based on the
struggle in Ireland, rendered memorable by the
defence of 'Derry and the siege of
Limerick."--_Saturday Review._

"The work is not only amusing and instructive, but
it is also one, as all Mr. Henty's books are,
likely to make any lad desire to be a noble and
useful member of society, whether he be a soldier

"The narrative is free from the vice of prejudice,
and ripples with life as vivacious as if what is
being described were really passing before the
eye. . . . _Orange and Green_ should be in the
hands of every young student of Irish history
without delay."--_Morning News (Belfast)._

_THE DRAGON AND THE RAVEN:_

Or, The Days of King Alfred. By G. A. HENTY. With
