SUSAN AND ARABELLA

A story of the Oregon Trail which just misses being first rate. A good tale, and suspense well sustained; but one does not get from it much feeling of authentic background, either in the pioneering part of the story, or in the part dealing with Susan's life with her captors, the Indians. One does get more of the strange blend of superstition and native wit in the Indian character, and Susan, herself, seems a flesh and blood child.
