By WILLIAM O. STODDARD.
The Despatch Boat of the Whistle. A story of Santiago. Illustrated by F. T. Merrill, 1 vol. 12mo. $1.25.
The incidents of our war with Spain in 1898 supply the theme for this story. It is a sea story and a land story. It tells the adventures of a breezy newspaper correspondent and of the sacrifices and revenges of a Cuban patriot. It is spirited, vigorous, and absorbing, and is, incidentally, a story of the war from the news of the destruction of the Maine to the fall of Santiago. And it is told by Mr. Stoddard! What more could any boy or girl desire?
