STEPHEN CRANE'S BOOKS.
THE THIRD VIOLET. 12mo. Cloth, $1.00.
Mr. Crane's new novel is a fresh and delightful study of artist life in the city and the country. The theme is worked out with the author's characteristic originality and force, and with much natural humor. In subject the book is altogether different from any of its predecessors, and the author's marked success proves his breadth and the versatility of his great talent.
THE LITTLE REGIMENT, and Other Episodes of the American Civil War. 12mo. Cloth, $1.00.
"In 'The Little Regiment' we have again studies of the volunteers waiting impatiently to fight and fighting, and the impression of the contest as a private soldier hears, sees, and feels it, is really wonderful. The reader has no privileges. He must, it seems, take his place in the ranks, and stand in the mud, wade in the river, fight, yell, swear, and sweat with the men. He has some sort of feeling, when it is all over, that he has been doing just these things. This sort of writing needs no praise. It will make its way to the hearts of men without praise."—New York Times.
"Told with a verve that brings a whiff of burning powder to one's nostrils.… In some way he blazons the scene before our eyes, and makes us feel the very impetus of bloody war."—Chicago Evening Post.
MAGGIE: A GIRL OF THE STREETS. 12mo. Cloth, 75 cents.
