Book Description: Peter Kyne (1880 1957) was an American novelist. Several of his works were produced as screen plays during the silent screen era. He lied about his age and enlisted in Company L, 14th U.S. Infantry, and served in the Philippines. The Spanish American War and the following insurrection of General Emilio Aguinaldo gave settings for many of Kyne's stories. During World War I, he served as a captain in the 144th field Artillery, who were known as the California Grizzlies. Cappy Ricks Retires but That Doesn't Keep Him From Coming Back Stronger...was first published in 1922. The further adventures of Cappy Ricks begins ''The same financial tidal wave had swept Cappy Ricks out of the presidency of the Blue Star Navigation Company presumably far up the beach to a place in the sun, where he was to bask for the remainder of his old age as president emeritus of all his companies. However, if there was one thing about Cappy you could depend upon absolutely it was the consistency of his inconsistency. For, having announced his retirement, his very next move was to bewail his inability to retire.'
