Author of "The Light Brigade in Spain," etc.
Illustrated by William Rainey, R.I. 12mo, $1.50
"It is a dashing romance for boys, founded on the Russo-Japanese War and worthy of the late Mr. Henty at his best. A story that every schoolboy will enjoy and one that will be read with much pleasure and profit by many older readers as well."—Cleveland Leader.
"The story throughout bristles with adventures, it is well written and the author shows intimate knowledge of Japanese character and customs."—San Francisco Bulletin.
"In one respect Mr. Strang's tale is even better than many of the late G. A. Henty's. It has more dash and dialogue. These are strong points in the work of this writer, who is destined to fill the place vacated by the lamented author of 'Under Drake's Flag,' and 'With Clive in India.'"—The Dundee Advertiser.
"For vibrant actuality there is nothing to come up to Mr. Strang's 'Kobo.'"—The Academy.
"A great amount of actual military history is incorporated with an exciting and romantic plot."—The Westminster Gazette.
