FOLLOWING THE BALL -- "Here is an up-to-date
story presenting American boarding school life and modern athletics. Of
course, football is an important feature, but this is far more than a
football book. It is a story of character formation told in a most
wholesome and manly way. In this development athletics play an important
part, to be sure, but are only one feature in carrying the hero,
"Dick Melvin," on to a worthy manhood." -- illustrated by Charles Copeland. 1903. Lothrop, Lee &
Shepard

MAKING THE NINE -- "This story is lively and
worth telling, and the life presented is that of a real school,
interesting, diversified, and full of striking incidents, while the
characters are true and consistent types of American boyhood and youth.
The athletics are technically correct, abounding in helpful suggestions,
soundly and wisely given, and the moral tone is high and set by action
rather than preaching." -- illustrated by Charles Copeland. 1904. Lothrop, Lee &
Shepard.
-
IN THE LINE -- "Tells how a stalwart young
student won his position as guard, and at the same time made equally
marked progress in the formation of his character. It introduces the
leading arguments for and against football in connection with the
difficulties to be overcome before the hero's father finally consents to
allow his son to represent his academy in this way." -- illustrated by Charles Copeland. 1905. Lothrop, Lee &
Shepard.
