Description: WHILE spending some time in Nova Scotia, Evelyn Eaton got on the trail of a fascinating historical character, a certain Madame de Freneuse. Miss Eaton tracked her down, unearthed a lot of unusual material, and turned it into this historical romance. Quietly My Captain Waits came to Harpers, was read with mounting enthusiasm by editorial, sales, publicity and promotion departments, who unanimously voted it a most important Harper "find." Sent out before publication to well-known critics and leading booksellers, it received a barrage of unusually favorable comments. Then Hollywood bought the screen rights, and a leading book club made it a monthly selection. Built up to best-seller proportions, Quietly My Captain Waits floated high on the best-seller lists for months. Its heroine joined the company of glamorous women of American fiction. This special edition of QUIETLY MY CAPTAIN WAITS by Evelyn Eaton has been made available to the Armed Forces of the United States through an arrangement with the original publisher, Harper & Brothers, New York. Editions for the Armed Services, Inc., a non-profit organization established by the Council on Books in Wartime
