SOUTH SEA ROMANCES

... . The collaboration of Mr. Louis Becke and Mr. Walter Jeffery has in two instances been brightly successful. Mr. Becke's South Sea stories were vigorous and exciting in subject, but the knack of easily attracting even such readers as were thirsting for tales of travel and adventure was not his.
