Burning Sands

This book is a collection for young children by Arthur Weigall. A book about Daniel Lane cast a pair of searching blue eyes upon the resplendent figure of the girl in the chair. In the sheen of the moon her dress, of flimsy material, seemed to array her as it were in a mist; and the diamonds about her throat and in her hair--for she was wearing family jewels--gleamed like magic points of light.
