=A concise story of the Lewis and Clark Expedition=
=By Noah Brooks=
_Illustrated. $1.50 net_
“For any one who has an interest in travel, in adventure, and in the
hardihood of the pioneer this is a great story.”—_Baltimore Herald._
“Probably no incident in the Winning of the West exceeds or even equals
in romantic interest that pioneer journey across the continent by Lewis
and Clark.”—_The Churchman._
“It is concise, comprehensive, and readable, and will be useful to young
and old alike. The book is illustrated by reproductions of drawings from
Catlin, Schoolcraft, and other early observers. Ernest Thompson Seton
contributes four animal drawings.”—_St. Louis Post-Dispatch._
“More readable than a romance, full of hair-breadth escapes and imminent
perils from savage man and beast, by storm and flood, by sickness and
cold and starvation.”—_Chicago Post._

=The Story of Rustem=
=And Other Persian Hero Tales from Firdusi=
=By Elizabeth D. Renninger=
ILLUSTRATED BY J. L. S. WILLIAMS
_$1.50 net_
The great hero stories of Persia retold from the Shah Naameh and
beautifully illustrated. What Homer was to Greece and Virgil to Rome,
Firdusi was to Persia, and there are no more thrilling stories of
fighting and adventure than those of Rustem, the champion of the Heroic
Age of Persia, quite different as they are from the tales of every other
nation. Rustem was as brave and chivalrous as any of King Arthur’s
knights and had just as many adventures and trials, and the story of his
heroism and knightly courtesy, coupled with all the mysticism and
splendor of the East, make this book a fascinating one. The book has a
striking cover of Persian design.

trapping, and life in the villages when they were at peace with their
neighbors, and the illustrations cannot fail to interest the American
boy who is fond of healthy out-door sports and adventures. The book is

Transcriber’s Note
The punctuation of the index, especially the use of semi-colons and
commas, seemed inconsistent, and has been regularized to use commas to
separate page references.
Spelling, in quotations from original documents, has been left as
printed, due to the idiosyncratic nature of the orthography of the
various times. Occasionally, odd (to the modern eye) phrases are
seemingly misquoted. Our 'as soon as' is most frequently spelled, in
Hakluyt, 'assoone as', and where another variant (e.g., 'assoonas' on p.
319) appears, the typical spelling is provided.
Errors deemed most likely to be the printer’s have been corrected, and
are noted here. The references are to the page and line in the original.
