LAFITTE OF LOUISIANA
By MARY DEVEREUX. Illustrated by Harry C. Edwards, 427 pages. $1.50.
The remarkable career of Jean Lafitte during the French Revolution and the War of 1812, and the strange tie between this so-called "Pirate of the Gulf" and Napoleon Bonaparte, is the basis of this absorbing and virile story, a novel of love and adventure written by a skilled hand.
This work is one of the most ambitious of its class, and it has in the introduction of Napoleon as Lafitte's guardian angel a picturesque feature which makes it of rather unusual interest. Philadelphia Record,
