NEW MACMILLAN FICTION
The Mutiny of the Elsinore
By JACK LONDON, Author of “The Sea Wolf,” “The Call of the Wild,” etc.
With frontispiece in colors by Anton Fischer. Cloth, 12mo. $1.35 net.
Everyone who remembers The Sea Wolf with pleasure will enjoy this vigorous narrative of a voyage from New York around Cape Horn in a large sailing vessel. The Mutiny of the Elsinore is the same kind of tale as its famous predecessor, and by those who have read it, it is pronounced even more stirring. Mr. London is here writing of scenes and types of people with which he is very familiar, the sea and ships and those who live in ships. In addition to the adventure element, of which there is an abundance of the usual London kind, a most satisfying kind it is, too, there is a thread of romance involving a wealthy, tired young man who takes the trip on the Elsinore, and the captain’s daughter. The play of incident, on the one hand the ship’s amazing crew and on the other the lovers, gives a story in which the interest never lags and which demonstrates anew what a master of his art Mr. London is.
The Three Sisters
By MAY SINCLAIR, Author of “The Divine Fire,” “The Return of the Prodigal,” etc.
Cloth, 12mo. $1.35 net.
Every reader of The Divine Fire, in fact every reader of any of Miss Sinclair’s books, will at once accord her unlimited praise for her character work. The Three Sisters reveals her at her best. It is a story of temperament, made evident not through tiresome analyses but by means of a series of dramatic incidents. The sisters of the title represent three distinct types of womankind. In their reaction under certain conditions Miss Sinclair is not only telling a story of tremendous interest but she is really showing a cross section of life.
