*9I—James Eugene Farmer’s histori-
cal novel “The Grenadier—A Story of
the Empire,” has been published re-
cently by Dodd, Mead & Co. The fol-
lowing is quoted concerning it from the
New York Commercial Advertiser, under
date of Oct. 22; “Among recent attempts
at a French historical novel, the best
which has come under our notice 1s a
tale of the Empire, bearing the simple
title of The Grenadier. The author,
Mr. Farmer, who is already favorably
known to the public for his admirable
volume of ‘Essays on French History.”
has succeeded at his first attempt in
producing a highly creditable and en-
tertaining story. As a historical novel
it has the right ring to it; from the inti-
mate details. of the daily life of the
period to the manceuvres of the battle
of Waterloo it is obvious that the writer
has a firm grip upon his subject. The
figure of Napoleon is made to live, and
we see the “man of destiny” with all
his faults and foibles. A brief glimpse
behind the scenes along similar lines
has been attempted already by Conan
Doyle in his delightful ‘Brigadier
Gérard”; but the triumph of Mr. Far-
mer’s portrait lies in the fact that after
showing Napoleon as more or less of a
poseur, and betraying his pet weak-
nesses, he still makes us feel his great-
ness and share in the enthusiasm of
his soldiers.”
