Paul Jones.
Appleton. 1.00

Although this story is professedly and confessedly a romance,
history has been consulted at every point. Log-books, journals,
and biographies, have been searched, especially the logs,
journals, and letters, of Paul Jones himself. Much relating to
him has been left out, but nothing of consequence has been put in
that is not historically true. The language ascribed to him is,
whenever possible, that used by him at the time, or afterward, in
his letters and journals.--_Introduction._

For Captain Paul Jones ever loved close fighting.
FRANKLIN.
