New Editions of Two Favorite Books
THE LANCE OF KANANA
A STORY OF ARABIA
By HARRY W. FRENCH (“Abd el Ardavan”)
Two-color illustrations by Garrett
KANANA, a Bedouin youth, though excelling
in athletic prowess, is branded, even by his
father, as a coward because he prefers the
humble lot of a shepherd to the warrior’s career
that he, the son of a sheik known as the “Terror
of the Desert,” was expected to follow. “Only
for Allah and Arabia will I lift a lance and take
a life,” he maintained. Opportunity to prove
his worth soon comes, and the supposed coward,
understood too late, becomes in memory a
national hero.
“ The stirringf story of the loyalt) and self-sacrifice of
a Bedouin boy is weil worth the attractive new edition in
which it now presents its rare picture of fervid patri.
otism.”—Continent, Chicago.
