A Princess of the Balkans

By Henry C. Rowland

Author of "The Movies Man," "Leontine the Mysterious," Etc.

Ground between Turk and Russian and Austrian, the Balkan States have clung to life with a tenacity that speaks volumes for the character of the people. Romance is bound up In their countries' history and traditions—traditions that W. E. Gladstone declared "exceed in glory those of Marathon and Thermopylae and all the war traditions of the world." It is the romance of the Balkans that Rowland has given us in this novel. Three of the characters will stay in your memory: the American who gets his first glimpse of underground diplomacy; the girl from Novibazar who is being used as a pawn in the great game of statecraft; and the banker who boasts that he has made rebellions, and put kings on their thrones.
