  Following the marvellous success of "Eben Holden," Mr. Bacheller givesto the public another stirring and delightful story of the North Countryhe loves so well. It is a tale of the days when the French _emigrés_,fleeing from the Reign of Terror, built their chateaux and mansions inthe northern counties of New York; the days when England tried issueagain with the young republic, and when Darius Olin, "quaint, rugged,wise, and truthful," with young Ramon Bell, two types of the men whohave helped to make America, rode into the Lake Champlain region toadventure, love, and danger. It is a rare story of Yankee valor, Yankeehumor, and Yankee pluck.
