Turner, George Frederic. Frost and friendship. †$1.50. Little.
At the court of his friend, King Karl of Grimland, a rich young Englishman, a draper’s son encounters an amazing series of adventures and in the end, of course, wins a wife. Winter sports, tobogganing, and curling furnish amusement and also play their part in the drama in which frost and friendship melt beneath the warmth of love.
“Comes dangerously near the superfluous.”
