By JAMES OTIS.
12mo, cloth, illustrated, price $1.00. "The two lads who are utilized by the author to emphasize the details of the work done during that memorable time were real boys who lived on the banks of the York river, and who aided the Jersey spy in his dangerous occupation.
In the guise of fishermen the lads visit Yorktown, are suspected of being spies, and put under arrest.
Morgan risks his life to save them.
The final escape, the thrilling encounter with a squad of red coats, when they are exposed equally to the bullets of friends and foes, told in a masterly fashion, makes of this volume one of the most entertaining books of the year."-- Inter-Ocean.
