The book "" The Crimson Sweater "" has been considered important throughout the human history, and so that this work is never forgotten we have made efforts in its preservation by republishing this book in a modern format for present and future generations. This whole book has been reformatted, retyped and designed. These books are not made of scanned copies and hence the text is clear and readable.
THE CRIMSON SWEATER'S FIRST APPEARANCE "Hello, Lobster!" The boy in the crimson sweater raised a pair of blue eyes to the speaker's face and a little frown crept into the sun-burned forehead; but there was no answer. "Where'd you get that sweater?" The older boy, a tall, broad-shouldered, deep-chested youth of nineteen, with a dark, not altogether pleasant face, paused on his way down the gymnasium steps and put the question sneeringly. Below, on the gravelled path leading to the athletic field, a little group of fellows had turned and were watching expectantly; Horace Burlen had a way of taking conceit out of new boys that was always interesting. To be sure, in the present case the new boy didn't look especially conceited-unless it is conceit to appear for football practice in a dandy crimson sweater which must have cost well up in two figures-but you never could tell, and, anyway, Horace Burlen was the school leader and had a right to do what he pleased. Just at present it pleased him to scowl fiercely, for the new boy was displaying a most annoying deliberation. Horace examined the other with awakening interest. He was a fairly tall youth, sixteen years of age, well set up with good chest and shoulders and rather wide hips. Like Horace, the younger boy was in football togs, only his sweater instead of being brown was crimson and in place of the letters "F H" sported by Horace the front of his garment showed where the inscription "H 2nd" had been ripped away. But the difference between the two boys didn't end there; Horace Burlen was tall and big and dark; Roy Porter was several inches shorter, not so wide of shoulder nor so deep of chest; and whereas Horace's hair was straight and black, Roy's was light, almost sandy, and was inclined to be curly. Under the hair was a good-looking sun-browned face, with a short, well-built nose, a good mouth and a pair of nice grey-blue eyes which at this moment were regarding Horace calmly. The older boy scowled threateningly.
First published 1905. Illustrated by C. M. Relyea. It is pretty safe to say that no writer for young folks can write of boarding-school life so interestingly as Ralph Henry Barbour. His latest book for boys is The Crimson Sweater, and is the best he has done. The girls will like it, too, for the heroine of the story is the daughter of the headmaster of the school.

Biography: During his career, Barbour produced more than 100 novels as well as a number of short stories................... Charles Mark Relyea (April 23, 1863 - 1932) was an American illustrator whose work appeared in magazines and popular novels in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Life and career: Relyea was a native of Albany, New York, and spent most of his early years in Rochester. He studied art under Thomas Eakins at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and under Frank Vincent DuMond at the Art Students League in New York City before completing his training in Paris. After returning to the United States, he made his home in New Rochelle, New York. His illustrations appeared in the children's magazine St. Nicholas, as well as magazines for broader audiences, such as Munsey's. In 1897, a publishing house chose Relyea to illustrate The Rubáiyát of Doc Sifers, Hoosier poet James Whitcomb Riley's poem satirizing The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam. Because Relyea was not from Indiana, Riley insisted that he visit the state before making his drawings, to ensure that he would not misrepresent Indiana or caricature its residents. Selected works: Books with illustrations by Charles M. Relyea include: The Rubáiyát of Doc Sifers (James Whitcomb Riley, 1897) Standard First Reader (1902), published by Funk & Wagnalls Children of the Tenements (Jacob A. Riis, 1903) A Defective Santa Claus (James Whitcomb Riley, 1904) Her Brother's Letters (Anonymous, 1906) Just Patty (1911) Left Tackle Thayer (Ralph Henry Barbour, 1915), Dodd, Mead & Company The Slipper Point Mystery (1921)....
