The Lucky Sixpence A splendid tale for all growing-up young folks—and all grown-ups—who like an exciting story, by Emilie Benson Knipe and Alden Arthur Knipe. There is much actual fact in this out-of-the-ordinary tale; and the authors make the bonny heroine of the story, the historic Americans she meets, and our own Revolutionary history very real and alive with vivid interest.
