With Frederick the Great: A Tale of the Seven Years’ War. By G. A. Henty. With 12 page Illustrations by Wal Paget, and Maps. 6s.

“A very spirited story, well worthy to be ranked with the best of Mr. Henty’s work. Terence O’Connor, up to the time of the opening of the tale, has done little but get into mischief, but as soon as he feels the responsibility of being one of Mr. Henty’s heroes, combines discretion with courage, not forgetting, however, to spice the mixture with a little fun.”—Spectator.
