"The Way of an Eagle" in the Air
PROLIFIC writer of popular romantic stories, and in her day one of the world’s best-sellers, Ethel M. Dell published more than thirty-five books, including novels and collections of short stories and verse. Among her earliest works was The Way of an Eagle and the ability of this book to speed up the pulse-rates of romantically minded young men and women established Miss Dell in
her particular field of writing. Published in 1912 The Way of an Eagle was followed in 1914 by The Rocks of Valpré, and a year later by The Keeper of the Door. Now these three novels have been included in a _ trilogy adapted for radio by Patricia Isles, and the serial (produced by John Hickling) will be presented to Commercial station listeners each Thursday evening at 7.30 and each Saturday at 9.15 p.m. It will begin at 1ZB on Saturday, April 19; 2ZB on Saturday, May 3; 3ZB on Saturday, May 17; and 4ZB on Thursday, June 5. This romantic drama opens with an introduction to Captain Nick Ratcliffe of the Indian Army, and continues to trace the adventures of the Ratcliffe family through to The Rocks of Valpré, where the Wynd-
ham family makes its debut. In The Keeper of the Door, the third part of the serial, an inter-family marriage climaxes the closer relations between Wyndhams and Ratcliffes. Among the many radio actors taking part in The Way of an Eagle, the title of the serial, are Keith Eden, William Lloyd, Douglas Kelly, Margaret Mouchemore, Beryl Walker and Brenda Beddison. f
