"Mr. Henty is one of our most successful writers of historical
tales."--_Scotsman._

=The Lion of the North:= A Tale of Gustavus Adolphus and the Wars
of Religion. By G. A. HENTY. With 12 page Pictures by
J. SCHÖNBERG. 6_s._
"A praiseworthy attempt to interest British youth in the great deeds of
the Scotch Brigade in the wars of Gustavus Adolphus. Mackay, Hepburn,
and Munro live again in Mr. Henty's pages, as those deserve to live
whose disciplined bands formed really the germ of the modern British
army."--_Athenæum._
=The Young Carthaginian:= A Story of the Times of Hannibal. By
G. A. HENTY. With 12 page Illustrations by C. J.
STANILAND, R.I. 6_s._
"The effect of an interesting story, well constructed and vividly told,
is enhanced by the picturesque quality of the scenic background. From
first to last nothing stays the interest of the narrative. It bears us
along as on a stream whose current varies in direction, but never loses
its force."--_Saturday Review._
=Redskin and Cow-boy:= A Tale of the Western Plains. By G. A.
HENTY. Illustrated by ALFRED PEARSE. 6_s._
"It has a good plot; it abounds in action; the scenes are equally
spirited and realistic, and we can only say we have read it with much
pleasure from first to last. The pictures of life on a cattle ranch are
most graphically painted, as are the manners of the reckless but jovial
cow-boys."--_Times._
=With Clive in India:= or, The Beginnings of an Empire. By G.
A. HENTY. Illustrated by GORDON BROWNE. 6_s._
"Among writers of stories of adventure for boys Mr. Henty stands in the
very first rank. Those who know something about India will be the most
ready to thank Mr. Henty for giving them this instructive volume to
place in the hands of their children."--_Academy._
=In Greek Waters:= A Story of the Grecian War of Independence
(1821-1827). By G. A. HENTY. With 12 page Illustrations
by W. S. STACEY, and a Map. 6_s._
"There are adventures of all kinds for the hero and his friends, whose
pluck and ingenuity in extricating themselves from awkward fixes are
always equal to the occasion. It is an excellent story, and if the
proportion of history is smaller than usual, the whole result leaves
nothing to be desired."--_Journal of Education._
=The Dash for Khartoum:= A Tale of the Nile Expedition. By G.
A. HENTY. With 10 page Illustrations by J. SCHÖNBERG
and J. NASH, and 4 Plans. 6_s._
"It is literally true that the narrative never flags a moment; for the
incidents which fall to be recorded after the dash for Khartoum has
been made and failed are quite as interesting as those which precede
it."--_Academy._
