Description:
- A later blurb, after the William Wallace Cook stories have been completed, reads as follows: "Splendid, Interesting, Big Stories. This line is devoted exclusively to a splendid type of adventure story, in the big outdoors. There is really a breath of fresh air in each of them, and the reader who pays fifteen cents for a copy of this line feels that he has received his money's worth and a little more. The authors of these books are experienced in the art of writing, and know just what the up-to-date American reader wants."
- Publisher's blurb: For the present the Adventure Library will be devoted to the publication of stories by William Wallace Cook. The fact that one man wrote all of these stories in no way detracts from their interest, as they all are very different in plot and locality. For example, the action in one story takes place in 'The Land of Little Rain;' another deals with adventure on the high seas; another is a good railroad story; others are splendid Western stories; and some are mystery stories. All of them are drawn true to life, which gives them the thrill that all good fiction should have.
Notes:
- Beginning with No. 117 all are reprints of earlier numbers.
