Pathfinders of the West

BEING THE THRILLING STORY OF THE ADVENTURES OF THE MEN WHO DISCOVERED THE GREAT NORTHWEST, RADISSON, LA VÉRENDRYE, LEWIS, AND CLARK

“A thrilling account of the adventures of Radisson, La Vérendrye, Lewis, Clark, and others who discovered the great Northwest. The author’s stories of these men are well studied, well expressed, always reasonable, always enthusiastic, yet never fulsome.... Miss Laut’s simply written chapters have all the compelling charm of good fiction. Many readers not accustomed to literature of this order will peruse the book with eager delight because of the quietly effective manner in which the dramatic facts are presented.”—Chicago Record-Herald.

Vikings of the Pacific

A CONTINUATION OF “PATHFINDERS OF THE WEST”

“Miss Laut sets herself the task of writing about the Pacific pioneers and explorers in popular style, and she has achieved a huge success. In interest her stories leave the historical novel far in the rear, for she deals in the first instance with well-established facts which are romantic enough without imaginative coloring.... Her book awakens a desire to know more about these lusty vikings of the Pacific, so that the measure of Miss Laut’s success is something more than to have written a popular book.”—New York Sun.

By DR. WILFRED T. GRENFELL

Labrador

Illustrated, cloth, 8vo, $2.25 net

In this volume Dr. Grenfell supplies the only full and adequate account of Labrador—the country, its natural resources, the climatic conditions, and its people. In addition to the main body of the book, with its chapters on Physiography, the People of the Coast, the Missions, the Dogs, the various Fisheries, there are short chapters on the Flora, the Fauna, the Geology, etc., each by a scientific author of standing. The volume, profusely illustrated from photographs in the author’s own collection, reveals an unknown land to the vast majority of readers.

Alaska: The Great Country

Illustrated, cloth, 12mo, $2.25 net

“No other book gives so clear an impression of the beauty and grandeur and vastness of our northernmost territory, nor so inspires one to explore its vastnesses. She has mingled enough of history and statistics to make it authorative, and has embellished the tale with stories and anecdotes to prevent its being dull, and has succeeded in writing what might well be called a great book on a great subject.”—The Boston Evening Transcript.


By JAMES OUTRAM

In the Heart of the Canadian Rockies

With maps and forty-six illustrations, reproduced from photographs

Cloth, imperial 8vo, gilt top, $2.50 net

“It is so inspired with the glories of the mountains, their sublime solitudes and silences, and their fascinating perils that it might well be called the epic of American mountaineering.”—World To-day.

“There is an unexpected freshness in the whole treatment, a vigor of movement in the narrative, and a brilliancy of touch in the drawing that are altogether exceptional. No one, we think, will be able to read this work without forming a strong desire to visit the Canadian Rockies, and the admirable photographs which have been used in the illustrations will strengthen that desire.”—Church Standard.


By E. V. LUCAS

A Wanderer in Holland

Illustrated, cloth, 8vo, $2.00 net

“Mr. Lucas assures us that Holland is one of the most delightful countries to move about in, everything that happens in it being of interest. He fully proves his statement, and we close his book with the conviction that we shall never find there a more agreeable guide than he. For he is a man of taste and culture, who has apparently preserved all the zest of youth for things beautiful, touching, quaint, or humorous—especially humorous—and his own unaffected enjoyment gives to his pages a most endearing freshness and sparkle.... In short, the book is a charming one.”—New York Tribune.

A Wanderer in London

Illustrated, cloth, 8vo, $1.75 net

“We have met with few books of the sort so readable throughout. It is a book that may be opened at any place and read with pleasure by readers who have seen London; and those who have not, will want to see it after reading the book of one who knows it so well.”—New York Evening Sun.

A Wanderer in Paris

Illustrated, cloth, 8vo, $1.75 net

Mr. Lucas in his wanderings in many lands plays the part of an intellectual lecturer absorbing the atmosphere of the country and the soul of its people rather than that of a hustling reporter content with diagrammatic descriptions. He is as much at home in Paris as he is in his native London, and he enters into the life of the Parisians with the same intimacy and the same charm that have characterized all his previous works. The volume is profusely illustrated.
