A New Romance Teeming with Love and Adventure
BEATRIX OF CLARE
By JOHN REED SCOTT
Whose “Colonel of the Red Huzzars” (Eleven Editions) captured
first place as 1906’s most dashing novel.
England in the time of Richard III forms the setting for this tale of romance and adventure, which takes place close about the throne. Beatrix, beauty, heiress, and Countess of Clare, is won by the young knight and courtier, De Lacy, beneath the friendly smiles of both king and queen, while their love affair is troubled by abduction and bloodshed, and influenced by the great events which stir the kingdom and even threaten the crown. The novel is full of “go” from start to finish.
“Not a dull line in the book.”—Pittsburg Dispatch.
“The story is ennobling as well as bright and fascinating.”—New York Sun.
“Holds the interest closely to the end.”—Boston Ev. Transcript.
“Noteworthy as a real contribution to historical romance.”—San Francisco Chronicle.
