This Week's Acquisitions
- C. Robert Wynne, Not Peace But a Sword (RTS, [1915?]). Reprint of an 1897 novel about a young Protestant woman witnessing to an Irish family. The last time I checked, however, "C." was not the appropriate initial for "George"--the author is George Robert Wynne. This reprint belongs to one of the RTS' jury-rigged series, "Advance," along with a few earlier novels by Emma Leslie and some twentieth-century novels published in 1915 (hence my guess about the date).
