The Boys Of The Cross
By Daniel Darlinghurst
Published by Jarrold & Sons: London 1903

" The Boys of the Cross by Daniel Darlinghurst, published by Jarrold & Sons, London, in 1903 (sixth edition), is a devotional and moralistic work aimed at inspiring Christian faith and character in young readers. Subtitled Being True Talks with Some of Christ's Young Soldiers, the book blends storytelling with spiritual instruction, presenting parables and dialogues that encourage boys to live honourably and courageously under the banner of the Cross. Darlinghurst's tone is earnest yet accessible, reflecting the Edwardian era's blend of moral education and religious duty, while his imagery of youthful soldiers in Christ's service offers a stirring metaphor for steadfastness and faith.

Elegantly bound in striking red pictorial cloth with a decorative Art Nouveau-inspired design, this early 20th-century edition reflects both its spiritual and aesthetic appeal. Illustrated with engraved frontispiece plates, it captures a time when faith-based literature sought to guide children toward virtue through engaging, narrative form. A fine collectible for admirers of Victorian-Edwardian devotional works, moral instruction literature, and antique religious publishing."
