The peculiar thing about Kanana was that he never held a lance in his hand but once; yet many a celebrated sheik and powerful chieftain of his day lies buried and forgotten long ago, while the name of Kanana is still a magic battle cry among the sons of Ishmael, and his lance is one of the most precious relics of Arabia. The Lance of Kanana is a story rich with fine characterizations, exciting plot, and the many poetic passages of description that have won it a place among the hero classics of all times.
