And their arrival caught John Clayton and Charles Ansley off guard.

Just then Charles Lever yelled, `` Hey, Jack '', from the quarry road which ran behind the Carter house, and Jack grabbed the lunch from the table and darted out the kitchen door, yelling `` Good-bye, Mom '' over his shoulder.

Charles said, grinning, showing his huge yellow teeth.

Charles, also fifteen, was tall and skinny, scraggly, with straight black hair like an Indian's and sharp brown eyes.

Charles said as they picked their way over the rocky road which led up the hill away from the Dixie Highway, through a corn field and a patch of woods to the school.

He said, lapsing into the profanity he often used when away from his parents and especially when he was with Charles.

He could think of nothing else save his mental image of her nude figure and what Charles had said that morning about Margaret Rider.

Occasionally he would look across the aisle at Margaret, fourteen and demure in a fresh green organdy dress, sitting in the sixth-grade row, and he could hardly believe she would do what Charles had said she did.

At noontime, remembering what the teacher had said about maybe playing with the kids, Jack stayed close to the schoolhouse while all the other big boys, except Charles, went off out the road to play ball.

He asked Charles suspiciously as they sat in the well-house shade, watching the girls congregate in front of the schoolhouse.

Though it centers around the brilliant and enigmatic figure of Charles 12,, the true hero is not finally the king himself.

The Charles Men consists not of a connected narrative but of a group of short stories, each depicting a special phase of the general subject.

The Charles Men has a tremendous range of characters, of common folk even more than of major figures.

The career of Charles 12, is obviously very similar to that of Napoleon.

The first half of The Charles Men, ending on the climax of the battle of Poltava in 1709, is more dramatically coherent than the second.

In `` The King's Ride '', Charles breaks out of a long period of petulance and inertia, regains his old self, escapes from Turkey, and finally reaches his own land after an absence of eighteen years.

The guns are fired, the hymns are sung, and the body of Charles is carried down to the vault and laid beside the tombs of his ancestors.

Excellent in their way, they lack the wide appeal of The Charles Men, and need not detain us here.

Gustaf Vasa is a superb example, and Charles 10,, the conqueror of Denmark, hardly less so.

Of Gustavus Adolphus and Charles 12, it is unnecessary to speak.
