STRATAGEMS AND SPOILS
Illustrated Cloth 12mo $1.50
There are hours and days and long years in the lives of men and women wherein strong passions are excited and great human interests are at stake. The ambition for power, the greed for money, the desire to win the game, the hunger for fame, parental love, anger, friendship, hate, and revenge–the primitive passions that move men and the world powerfully–certainly these deserve as important a place in the chronicles of the human animal as does the mating instinct. It is with this idea in mind that Mr. White has set the stories in this volume in the field of American politics, where every human emotion finds free play.
THE REAL ISSUE
Cloth 12mo $1.25
“It pulsates with humor, interest, passionate love, adventures, pathos–every page is woven with threads of human nature, life as we know it, life as it is, and above it all a spirit of righteousness, true piety, and heroic patriotism. These inspire the author’s genius and fine literary quality, thrilling the reader with tenderest emotion, and holding to the end his unflagging, absorbing interest.”–The Public Ledger, Philadelphia.
