A Novel of American Life— BRAND WHITLOCK'S

This novel, telling a vigorous story filled with living folk, varied throughout its length as are the years of a man's life, gets close to outer appearances and the inner truths of the forces dominating our villages, our small towns, our cities. The life story of Paul Hardin commences back in the last century and follows him to maturity at the present time-as a story of the life we have all been living, the novel will seize on the attention of the novel readers of the nation. Is this "the great American novel"? The future will answer the question-but there can be no doubt that to the present generation Brand Whitlock's "J. Hardin & Son" will come as an absorbing, grippingly powerful picture of American life as we all know it. Ready October II.
