From dust jacket: When Charles Boardman Hawes, author of The Mutineers, The Great Quest, and The Dark Frigate.died in the summer of 1923, The Atlantic Monthly Press offered a prize of $2,000 for a tale of adventure of the same general character and excellence as these three splendid stories. The prize was intended as a memorial to Mr. Hawes, whose untimely death at the age of thirty-four deprived a large public of further tales such as those in the writing of which he had no rival. Of the scores of manuscripts submitted, The Scarlet Cockerel was the unanimous choice of the judges to receive the prize. The new author, who is thirty-seven years old, has never written a novel before. Mr. Sublette is particularly interested in history and his novel has a distinctly historical background, being a 16th century tale of the French Huguenot colonists in the Carolinas and their difficulties with the Spanish from Florida.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'The Scarlet Cockerel' is a spirited historical adventure that transports readers to the turbulent 16th century. The narrative centers on Blaise de Breault, a young French nobleman forced to flee his country after a fatal duel.
