Up from his country home Sandy goes to London. And there he has his
great adventure. What it is and the story of his success and of his
love is told by Mr. Crockett in a fashion which will convince many
people that this is quite the most satisfactory novel he has ever
written. Full of the vigor of life, with a wit and humor that win
the reader even as they won his associates, Sandy is a cheery kind
of hero and the tale of his experiences of that inspiring type which
fires men--and women, too--on to the accomplishment of big things.
No less appealing a figure is V. V., the girl with whom Sandy falls
in love and who long before the book's close becomes his life
partner. Altogether "Sandy" thrills and exhilarates as does little
of the present day fiction.
"There's always a good story in a Crockett novel, and has been
ever since the days of 'The Stickit Minister.' Sandy is a typical
new Scot, most modern and most masterful of all heroes in current
fiction.... As winning a heroine as any one could desire is
skillfully wrought into the warp and woof of Mr. Crockett's
fabric of narrative. Popular favor is likely to score one for
'Sandy'."--_Phila. North American._
