FLOWER O' THE CORN 



MR. CROCKETT has made an interesting 

 novel of romance and intrigue. He has chosen 

 a little town in the south of France, high up 

 in the mountains, as the scene for his drama. 

 The plot deals with a group of Calvinists who 

 have been driven from Belgium into southern 

 France, where they are besieged in their moun- 

 tain fastness by the French troops. A number 

 of historical characters figure in the book, 

 among them Madame de Maintenon. 

 " Flower o' the Corn " is probably one of Mr. 

 Crockett's most delightful women characters. 

 The book is notable for its fine descriptions. 



Cloth, 12mo 11.50
