PUBLISHERS’ NOTE
Reading edition
Mr. George A. Henty, who died in November, 1902, had completed three new stories, With the Allies to Pekin, Through Three Campaigns, and By Conduct and Courage. Of these, Through Three Campaigns and With the Allies to Pekin were published in the autumn of 1903; the present story is therefore the last of Mr. Henty’s great series of historical stories for boys.
The proofs have been revised by Mr. G. A. Henty’s son, Captain C. G. Henty.
