Lucky is a hook that attracted considerable attention and enjojed its duo share of popular ity ut the time of its publication Its theme as tho name suggests is tho exploits of thoYikiugs The book while u novel still makes some pre tense to historical accuracy or at any rate at tempts to describe tho life of those most inter esting if somewhat lawless people An addi tional reason why wo should read the book is that it i tho work of a westerner Notwithstanding tho fact that there aroso many points of differei co between West nnd South there ia strong bond between those two sections of our common country Tho tastes and inclinations of Southerners and Westerners are similar in so many respects that wo ns western ers fool a much closer affinity for what comes out of the South than to things Eastern Cablo tho greatest of recent Southern authors proba bly has not douo better writing than he did in Old Creole Days although ho has since written books that rank among the most successful of their day A popular impression prevails that tho Creoles have Negro blood in their veins Nothing however can be farthorfrom tho truth If we have an aristocracy in this country it con sists of the Creoles of New Orleans No other emigiautb from tho old world have succeeded as have the French in Louisiana in retaining their identit Not only have the individual descend ants of the original settlers the characteristics of their ancestors but the whole social fabric has felt their influence They have even engraft ed tho common Liw which is tho sjstem that regulates tho conduct of men in all English speaking countries with many principles known only to the civil law tho tjstem that prevails among Latin nations One of tho things in the world of literature thit cannot bo accounted for is the public taste Probably every reader has favorites among au thors and among books that have not received the stamp of general approval Emmy Lou is a little book that might reasonably bo expected to bo extremely popular It author has for I years been a close student of men The test of merit in fiction is its fidelity to life No one can read Emmy Lou without being impressed by the fact that tho pictures are true to nature There is too a satirical humor about tho sketches for tho book is scarcely entitled to bo called a novel that ib delightful Tho books in this
