With a strong love for her peo-
ple, Jean Karsavina has writ-
ten an exciting novel of Europe
today.

Guerrilla warfare and the two
boys who joined General Mar-
jon’s guerrilla band to harry
the British regulars in Caro-
lina in another war for free-
dom 160 years ago Swamp Fox
Brigade by Eric Lucas (Inter-
national Publishers, $2.50) will

prove exciting fare for the 11- |.

16-year-old. Here is adventure
and action, a vigorous hatred
of tyranny and the same kind of
war that Tito’s guerrillas, the
French Maquis and the Rus-
Sian partisans fought so glori-
ously and victoriously. One that
eannot fail to thrill.

These books are all available
at the People’s Cooperative
Bookstore.
