f stories of Red Indians which are none the
less romantic for being true. They are taken from the actual records of
those who have been made prisoners by the red men or have lived among
them, joining in their expeditions and taking part in their semi-savage
but often picturesque and adventurous life.

"Mr. Hope's volume is notably good: it gives a
very vivid picture of life among the
Indians."--_Spectator._

"So far, nothing can be better than Mr. Ascott
Hope's choice of _The Wigwam and the War-path_ as
the name of a collection of all the most scalping
stories, so to speak, of the North American
Indians we have ever heard."--_Saturday Review._

BY F. FRANKFORT MOORE.

"In writing a spirited tale of adventure to
delight the hearts of boys, Mr. Frankfort Moore
shows himself a master."--_The Guardian._

_HIGHWAYS AND HIGH SEAS:_

Cyril Harley's Adventures on Both. By F. FRANKFORT
MOORE. With 8 full-page Illustrations by ALFRED
PEARSE. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges,
$1.50.

The story belongs to a period when highways meant post-chaises, coaches,
and highwaymen, and when high seas meant post-captains, frigates,
privateers, and smugglers; and the hero--a boy who has some remarkable
experiences upon both--tells his story with no less humour than
vividness. He shows incidentally how little real courage and romance
there frequently was about the favourite law-breakers of fiction, but
how they might give rise to the need of the highest courage in others
and lead to romantic adventures of an exceedingly exciting kind. A
certain piquancy is given to the story by a slight trace of nineteenth
century malice in the picturing of eighteenth century life and manners.

"This is one of the best stories Mr. Moore has
written, perhaps the very best. The exciting
adventures among highwaymen and privateers are
sure to attract boys."--_Spectator._

"It is pleasant to come across such honest work as
_Highways and High Seas_. The author breathes a
vein of genuine humour, his Captain Chink being a
real achievement in characterization, and as some
of his incidents are veritably thrilling."--_Scots
Observer._
