The Romance of Every Day
By LILIAN QUILLER-COUCH.
Here is a bookful of romance and heroism; true stories of men, women, and children in early centuries and modern times who took the opportunities which came into their everyday lives and found themselves heroes and heroines; civilians who, without beat of drum or smoke of battle, without special training or words of encouragement, performed deeds worthy to be written in letters of gold.
"These stories are bound to encourage and inspire young readers to perform heroic actions."--Bristol Daily Mercury.
