JACK O' LANTHORN.
A Tale of Adventure. By Henry Frith. With 4 full-page Illustrations in black and tint. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, 2s. 6d.
This is a story of the days when George the Third was king, and when "Jack the Painter" was trying to set fire to the shipping in Government dockyards. The hero gets into certain scrapes, and at the sea-coast makes the acquaintance of Jack o' Lanthorn, the keeper of a light-ship. The lad and a companion drifting out to sea in an open boat, discover in a singular manner the approach of the Spanish fleet, and Jack accompanies the hero of the tale to report what they have seen. Seized by a press-gang they are taken off to sea, and eventually take part in the defence of Gibraltar.
"'Jack o' Lanthorn' will hold its own with the best works of Mr. Henty and Mr. Manville Fenn."—Morning Advertiser.
"The narrative is crushed full of stirring incident, and is sure to be a prime favourite with our boys."—Christian Leader.
