The Crusader's Casket
By Roy Norton
Author of “The Great Wong Loo,” “Spanish Joe” Etc.
The story of an ancient curse, dating back to the days of romance when the doges ruled the “Queen of the Seas,” that turns at last to a benediction. Mr. Norton is an old friend of Popular readers. His tales of “David and Goliath” have brought him a well-earned eminence among lovers of robust fiction. In this novel, dealing with the adventures of two young Americans in Venice, he has left his familiar field of the American West, but the charm of his art has not suffered by the change of setting. He remains a master of the human drama.—The Editor.
