Sienkiewicz, Henryk. [On the field of glory: a historical novel of the time of King John Sobieski]; tr. from the Polish original by Jeremiah Curtin. †$1.50. Little.
The scenes of Mr. Sienkiewicz’s latest story are laid in Poland during the reign of King John Sobieski, just before the Turkish invasion in 1682 to 1683. It concerns the romance of Panna Anulka and Pan Yotsek, an impecunious scion of a noble house. The guardian of the heroine, a strong-headed Polish nobleman determines to marry his ward, but dies on the eve of their betrothal. The fibre of the story is woven amid brawls and duels, lawlessness, riot and drunkenness: yet on the plane of this early barbarity are expressed fine notions of honor, loyalty and patriotism which are elements in Poland’s spiritual harvest.
