The books are chosen from the advance lists of our best known publishers by Carl Van Doren and an eminent group of assistants. They are delivered to you by your postman, all carriage charges prepaid. You do not know what the books are going to be but you know from past Guild selections how good they will be. Each one will be bound differently yet each will be unmistakably a Guild book, bearing the Guild imprint and differing distinctively from the ordinary trade binding of the same book which you will see everywhere. The Guild editions will never be on sale in the stores but trade editions of each Guild title will in all probability be on best seller lists everywhere. Some of the past selections which have made the Guild so many friends (the membership is already more than 45,000), are TRISTRAM, TRADER HORN, CIRCUS PARADE, THE GREAT AMERICAN BANDWAGON, BLACK MAJESTY and BAD GIRL. Memberships are FREE! The subscription price of the Literary Guild is to be advanced soon. Causes beyond the control of the Guild executives have made a raise in price necessary. To those who join now membership remains absolutely free and the subscription price of the twelve selected books remains at the present low figure for another year. Protect yourself from this advance by securing complete information now and by joining the Guild at once. The coupon will bring you an illustrated booklet, WINGS, describing the Guild thoroughly.

Only Book of Its Kind in English Historically, the volume is of intense interest as it traces other famous orders of chivalry in France and gives a' full description of the French Legion of Honor from its inception to the present day. In preparing material for thei work the author was given access by the French Government to a great quantity of records and data and the volume is the only one of its kind in the English language. It contains the only complete list available of American members of the legion, and also a list of the founders of the American Society. A Gem for Collectors of Napoleonana Collectors of Napoleonana will find it a rich treasury of material heretofore unavailable in English, with illuminating comments on Napoleon's reasons for forming the Legion of Honor and the skilful manner in which he used its decorations to inspire bravery, loyalty and service. Many members of the American Society of the French Legion of Honor will wish copies of this volume, as will members of regiments permitted to fly the Legion of Honor flag with their colors. The author, W. Francklyn Paris, M.A., L.H.D., is a Chevalier of the Legion of Honor and one of the founders of the American Society; a member of many distinguished societies of art and letters, and a much sought-after contributor to architectural and art magazines on both sides of the Atlantic. 8vo.
