Abner Islip is right in declaring, as quoted above, that the world is looking to
America. Who is Abner Islip? He personifies in spirit and in vision all the
great business in this country today. No one knows better than such a man
what this new America of ours means to modern civilization and . to the
advancement of the human race.
Abner Islip is the master force in a vast business. He strides like a giant
through the pages of Clarence Budington Kelland's new novel, "A Daughter
of Discontent," which begins its serial course in THE RED BOOK MAGAZINE
for January.
From every point of view, Mr. Kelland's achievement in this powerful novel is
remarkable and places him. at once in the front rank of the really great novelists
of our day. The story is a reflection of modern life such as is rarely the fortune
of a magazine to offer its readers. As a contribution to the history of our day
the publication of this novel is peculiarly fitting at the present time.
THE RED BOOK MAGAZINE is the one publication devoted to the purpose of
reflecting all that is most vital in modern American life, in the sole art form
of universal appeal fiction. The consciousness of this purpose is reflected in
each story, and has won for the magazine the high regard of increasing
thousands of readers each month. To these readers it carries cross-sections of
the life of today as it is really lived and provides a crystallization of the dreams,
the strivings and the achievements that are making our new America what it is.
