1912. With illustrations by The Kinneys. This American clergyman and author also graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy. Ordained by the Protestant Episcopal Church, he was chaplain of the First Pennsylvania Volunteers at the time of the Spanish-American War. He is best known for his historical novels. The book begins: There was no doubt that Caius Attilius, the young military tribune, was a very ill man, -perhaps had been would be the better tense of the verb, for it appeared to his officers and to the shipmaster, men of long and varied experience of a rough-and-ready sort, although none of them was a professional physician, that the crisis of the disease had passed and that the grip of the fever had been broken.
