"In addition to having given the reading public the best collection of political short stories we have yet seen, Mr. Flower has blazed a new trail in the more or less explored country of practical politics in fiction. There is not a story in the book which is not clever in construction, and significant in every sentence. Each is excellent, because it depicts character accurately and realistically, while unfolding a well-defined plot."—New York Evening Post.

Brothers of Peril
With four illustrations in color by H. C. Edwards.
Library 12mo, cloth decorative $1.50
A tale of Newfoundland in the sixteenth century, and of the now extinct Beothic Indians who lived there.
"An original and absorbing story. A dashing story with a historical turn. There is no lack of excitement or action in it, all being described in vigorous, striking style. To be sure, the ending is just what is expected, but its strength lies in its naturalness, and this applies to the whole story, which is never overdone; and this is somewhat remarkable, for there are many scenes that could be easily spoiled by a less skilful writer. A story of unusual interest."—Boston Transcript.
