_HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHY._

=THE NORMAN PEOPLE=, AND THEIR EXISTING DESCENDANTS IN THE BRITISH
DOMINIONS AND THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. One handsome vol. 8vo. Price
21s. [_In the Press._

    This work is the result of many years of research into the
    history of the Norman race in England. It is generally supposed
    to have become extinct; but careful study has shown that it
    exists and forms a large part of the English people. In the
    course of the work the early history of the whole aristocracy
    is revised, reconstructed, and very many thousands of families
    are shown to be Norman which have never before been accounted
    for.

from his Note-books and Correspondence. Edited by =Mrs. Rowland
Williams=. With a Photographic Portrait. [_In the Press._

the University of Pesth, Author of “Travels in Central Asia,” &c. Demy
8vo. Price 18s.

    “We conclude with a cordial recommendation of this valuable
    book. In the present work his moderation, scholarship, insight,
    and occasionally very impressive style, have raised him to the
    dignity of an historian”—_Saturday Review._

    “Almost every page abounds with composition of peculiar
    merit, as well as with an account of some thrilling event
    more exciting than any to be found in an ordinary work of
    fiction.”—_Morning Post._

=THE RELIGIOUS HISTORY OF IRELAND=: PRIMITIVE, PAPAL, AND PROTESTANT;
including the Evangelical Missions, Catholic Agitations, and Church

    “For those who shun blue books, and yet desire some of the
    information they contain, these latter chapters on the
    statistics of the various religious denominations will be

    “Mr. Godkin writes with evident honesty, and the topic on
    which he writes is one about which an honest book is greatly
    wanted.”—_Examiner._

Khalifahs. Translated from the Arabic Originals. By =Mrs. Godfrey Clerk=,
Author of “The Antipodes and Round the World.” Crown 8vo. Price 7s.

    “But there is a high tone about them, a love of justice, of
    truth and integrity, a sense of honour and manliness, and a
    simple devotion to religious duty, which however mistaken
    according to our lights, is deserving of every respect. The
    translation is the work of a lady, and a very excellent and
    scholar-like translation it is, clearly and pleasantly written,
    and illustrated and explained by copious notes, indicating
    considerable learning and research.”—_Saturday Review._

    “Those who like stories full of the genuine colour and
    fragrance of the East, should by all means read Mrs. Godfrey
    Clerk’s volume.”—_Spectator._

    “As full of valuable information as it is of amusing
    incident.”—_Evening Standard._

Jeanne d’Arc,” “In the Silver Age,” &c. Crown 8vo. 8s. 6d.

    books to children will find this at once instructive and

    and if children are not interested in her book, many of their
    seniors will be.”—_British Quarterly Review._

SENIOR from 1833 to 1859. Edited by =Mrs. M. C. M. Simpson=. In 2 vols.,

    as it were, crystallized the sayings of some of those many
    remarkable men with whom he came in contact.”—_Morning Post._

    “A book replete with knowledge and thought.”—_Quarterly Review._

    “An extremely interesting book.”—_Saturday Review._

the Revolution of 1848. By the late =Nassau William Senior=. Edited by
his Daughter, =M. C. M. Simpson=. In 2 vols., post 8vo. 24s.

    “The book has a genuine historical value.”—_Saturday Review._

    “The present volume gives us conversations with some
    of the most prominent men in the political history of
    France and Italy.... Mr. Senior has the art of inspiring
    all men with frankness, and of persuading them to put
    themselves unreservedly in his hands without fear of private
    circulation.”—_Athenæum._

    “No better, more honest, and more readable view of the state of
    political society during the existence of the second Republic

    he has done, and few could have placed before the reader so
    graphically the story which had to be told.”—_Leeds Mercury._

=SARA COLERIDGE, MEMOIR AND LETTERS OF.= Edited by her =Daughters=. 2
vols. Crown 8vo. With 2 Portraits. Price 24s. Second Edition, Revised and
Corrected.

    “We have read these two volumes with genuine
    gratification.”—_Hour._

    “We could have wished to give specimens of her very just,
    subtle, and concise criticisms on authors of every sort and
    time—poets, moralists, historians, and philosophers. Sara
    Coleridge, as she is revealed, or rather reveals herself, in
    the correspondence, makes a brilliant addition to a brilliant
    family reputation.”—_Saturday Review._

    “These charming volumes are attractive in two ways: first, as a
    memorial of a most amiable woman of high intellectual mark; and
    secondly, as rekindling recollections, and adding a little to
    our information regarding the life of Sara Coleridge’s father,
    the poet and philosopher.”—_Athenæum._

    of singular beauty and no inconsiderable power.”—_Examiner._

this country. By =H. A. Page=. Large post 8vo. 7s. 6d.

    writer; and the criticism is, on the whole, very well written,
    and exhibits a discriminating enthusiasm for one of the most
    fascinating of novelists.”—_Saturday Review._

    “Seldom has it been our lot to meet with a more
    appreciative delineation of character than this Memoir of
    Hawthorne.”—_Morning Post._

    Several chapters devoted to the characteristics of the people
    are exceedingly interesting and remarkable.... The whole book
    deserves the heartiest commendation ... sparkling and amusing
    from beginning to end. Reading it is like rambling about with
    a companion who is content to loiter, observing everything,
    commenting upon everything, turning everything into a picture,
    with a cheerful flow of spirits, full of fun, but far above
    frivolity.”—_Spectator._

    “He writes very lightly and pleasantly, and brightens his pages
    with a good deal of humour. His experiences were varied enough,
    and his book contains a series of vivid and miscellaneous
    sketches. We can recommend his whole volume as very amusing
    reading.”—_Pall Mall Gazette._

=FIELD AND FOREST RAMBLES OF A NATURALIST IN NEW BRUNSWICK.= With Notes

    catalogue by many graphic sketches of the rambles.”—_John Bull._

    “To the naturalist the book will be most valuable.... To the
    general reader the book will prove most interesting, for the
    style is pleasant and chatty, and the information given is
    so graphic and full, that those who care nothing for natural
    history as a pursuit will yet read these descriptions with
    great interest.”—_Evening Standard._

    interesting study, become doubly interesting, when we are, as
    in these pages, introduced to them in their daily walk and
    conversation.”—_Examiner._

    “Written in a very lively style, and has throughout a smack of
    dry humour and satiric reflection which shows the writer to be

    of criticism and general accuracy of information could be so
    well recommended to the fair-minded Irish reader.”—_Evening
    Standard._

    observation, and some noteworthy remarks on Irish public

    “Open the book, however, at what page the reader may, he will
    find something to amuse and instruct, and he must be very hard
    to please if he finds nothing to suit him, either grave or gay,
    stirring or romantic, in the capital stories collected in this
    well-got-up volume.”—_John Bull._

    “This study, according to her just notions on the subject, is
    to be fundamentally based on the exercise of the pupil’s own

the United States. Including a Correspondence with M. Louis Blanc. By
=Moncure D. Conway=. Crown 8vo. 5s.

    “A very able exposure of the most plausible fallacies of
    Republicanism, by a writer of remarkable vigour and purity of
    style.”—_Standard._

    “Mr. Conway writes with ardent sincerity. He gives us some good
    anecdotes, and he is occasionally almost eloquent.”—_Guardian_,
    July 2, 1873.

=STREAMS FROM HIDDEN SOURCES.= By =B. Montgomerie Ranking=. Crown 8vo. 6s.

    “In point of style it is well executed, and the prefatory
    notices are very good.”—_Spectator._

    “The effect of reading the seven tales he presents to us is to
    make us wish for some seven more of the same kind.”—_Pall Mall
    Gazette._

    “The tales are given throughout in the quaint version of the
    earliest English translators, and in the introduction to each
    will be found much curious information as to their origin, and
    the fate which they have met at the hands of later transcribers
    or imitators, and much tasteful appreciation of the varied
    sources from whence they are extracted.... We doubt not that
    Mr. Ranking’s enthusiasm will communicate itself to many of his
    readers, and induce them in like manner to follow back these
    streamlets to their parent river.”—_Graphic._




_MILITARY WORKS._


=THE GERMAN ARTILLERY IN THE BATTLES NEAR METZ.= Based on the official
reports of the German Artillery. By =Captain Hoffbauer=, Instructor in
the German Artillery and Engineer School. Translated by =Capt. E. O.
Hollist=.

    This history gives a detailed account of the movements of the
    German artillery in the three days’ fighting to the east and
    west of Metz, which resulted in paralyzing the army under
    Marshal Bazaine, and its subsequent surrender. The action of
    the batteries with reference to the other arms is clearly
    explained, and the valuable maps show the positions taken up
    by the individual batteries at each stage of the contests.
    Tables are also supplied in the Appendix, furnishing full
    details as to the number of killed and wounded, expenditure of
    ammunition, &c. The campaign of 1870-71 having demonstrated the
    importance of artillery to an extent which has not previously
    been conceded to it, this work forms a valuable part of the
    literature of the campaign, and will be read with interest
    not only by members of the regular but also by those of the
    auxiliary forces.

=THE OPERATIONS OF THE FIRST ARMY, UNDER STEINMETZ.= By =Von Schell=.
Translated by =Captain E. O. Hollist=. Demy 8vo. Uniform with the other

W. S. Cooke=. Crown 8vo, limp cloth.

=VICTORIES AND DEFEATS.= An Attempt to explain the Causes which have led
to them. An Officer’s Manual. By =Col. R. P. Anderson=. Demy 8vo. 14s.

    “A delightful military classic, and what is more, a most useful
    one. The young officer should have it always at hand to open
    anywhere and read a bit, and we warrant him that let that
    bit be ever so small it will give him material for an hour’s
    thinking.”—_United Service Gazette._

=THE FRONTAL ATTACK OF INFANTRY.= By =Capt. Laymann=, Instructor of
Tactics at the Military College, Neisse. Translated by =Colonel Edward
Newdigate=. Crown 8vo, limp cloth. Price 2s. 6d.

    “This work has met with special attention in our
    army.”—_Militarin Wochenblatt._

=THE OPERATIONS OF THE FIRST ARMY IN NORTHERN FRANCE AGAINST FAIDHERBE.=
By =Colonel Count Hermann Von Wartensleben=, Chief of the Staff of the
First Army. Translated by =Colonel C. H. Von Wright=. In demy 8vo.
Uniform with the above. Price 9s.

    “Very clear, simple, yet eminently instructive, is this
    history. It is not overladen with useless details, is written
    in good taste, and possesses the inestimable value of being in
    great measure the record of operations actually witnessed by
    the author, supplemented by official documents.”—_Athenæum._

    “The work is based on the official war documents—it is
    especially valuable—the narrative is remarkably vivid and
    interesting. Two well-executed maps enable the reader to trace
    out the scenes of General Manteuffel’s operations.”—_Naval and
    Military Gazette._

=ELEMENTARY MILITARY GEOGRAPHY, RECONNOITRING, AND SKETCHING.= Compiled
for Non-Commissioned Officers and Soldiers of all Arms. By =Lieut. C. E.
H. Vincent=, Royal Welsh Fusileers. Small crown 8vo. 2s. 6d.

    “An admirable little manual full of facts and
    teachings.”—_United Service Gazette._

=STUDIES IN THE NEW INFANTRY TACTICS.= Parts I. & II. By =Major W. Von
Schereff=. Translated from the German by =Col. Lumley Graham=. Price 7s.
6d.

    “Major Von Schereff’s ‘Studies in Tactics’ is worthy of the
    perusal—indeed, of the thoughtful study—of every military
    man. The subject of the respective advantages of attack and
    defence, and of the methods in which each form of battle should
    be carried out under the fire of modern arms, is exhaustively
    and admirably treated; indeed, we cannot but consider it to be
    decidedly superior to any work which has hitherto appeared in
    English upon this all-important subject.”—_Standard._

=TACTICAL DEDUCTIONS FROM THE WAR OF 1870-1.= By =Captain A. Von
Boguslawski=. Translated by =Colonel Lumley Graham=, late 18th (Royal
Irish) Regiment. Demy 8vo. Uniform with the above. Price 7s.

    “Major Boguslawski’s tactical deductions from the war are,
    that infantry still preserve their superiority over cavalry,
    that open order must henceforth be the main principles of all
    drill, and that the chassepot is the best of all small arms
    for precision.... We must, without delay, impress brain and
    forethought into the British Service; and we cannot commence
    the good work too soon, or better, than by placing the two
    books (‘The Operations of the German Armies’ and ‘Tactical
    Deductions’) we have here criticised, in every military
    library, and introducing them as class-books in every tactical
    school.”—_United Service Gazette._

=THE ARMY OF THE NORTH-GERMAN CONFEDERATION.= A Brief Description of its
Organisation, of the different Branches of the Service and their ‘Rôle’
in War, of its Mode of Fighting, &c. By a =Prussian General=. Translated
from the German by =Col. Edward Newdigate=. Demy 8vo. 5s.

    ⁂ The authorship of this book was erroneously ascribed to the
    renowned General von Moltke, but there can be little doubt that
    it was written under his immediate inspiration.

=THE OPERATIONS OF THE GERMAN ARMIES IN FRANCE, FROM SEDAN TO THE END OF
THE WAR OF 1870-1.= With Large Official Map. From the Journals of the
Head-quarters Staff, by =Major Wm. Blume=. Translated by =E. M. Jones=,
Major 20th Foot, late Professor of Military History, Sandhurst. Demy 8vo.
Price 9s.

    “The book is of absolute necessity to the military student....
    The work is one of high merit.”—_United Service Gazette._

    “The work of translation has been well done. In notes,
    prefaces, and introductions, much additional information has
    been given.”—_Athenæum._

    “The work of Major von Blume in its English dress forms the
    most valuable addition to our stock of works upon the war
    that our press has put forth. Major Blume writes with a clear
    conciseness much wanting in many of his country’s historians.
    Our space forbids our doing more than commending it earnestly
    as the most authentic and instructive narrative of the second
    section of the war that has yet appeared.”—_Saturday Review._

=THE OPERATIONS OF THE SOUTH ARMY IN JANUARY AND FEBRUARY, 1871.=
Compiled from the Official War Documents of the Head-quarters of the
Southern Army. By =Count Hermann Von Wartensleben=, Colonel in the
Prussian General Staff. Translated by =Colonel C. H. Von Wright=. Demy
8vo, with Maps. Uniform with the above. Price 6s.

=HASTY INTRENCHMENTS.= By =Colonel A. Brialmont=. Translated by
=Lieutenant Charles A. Empson, R.A.= Demy 8vo. Nine Plates. Price 6s.

    “A valuable contribution to military literature.”—_Athenæum._

    “In seven short chapters it gives plain directions for forming
    shelter-trenches, with the best method of carrying the
    necessary tools, and it offers practical illustrations of the
    use of hasty intrenchments on the field of battle.”—_United
    Service Magazine._

    “It supplies that which our own textbooks give but imperfectly,
    viz., hints as to how a position can best be strengthened by
    means ... of such extemporised intrenchments and batteries as
    can be thrown up by infantry in the space of four or five hours
    ... deserves to become a standard military work.”—_Standard._

    “Clearly and critically written.”—_Wellington Gazette._

=STUDIES IN LEADING TROOPS.= By =Colonel Von Verdy Du Vernois=. An
authorised and accurate Translation by =Lieutenant H. J. T. Hildyard=,
71st Foot. Parts I. and II. Demy 8vo. Price 7s.

    ⁂ General BEAUCHAMP WALKER says of this work:—“I recommend
    the first two numbers of Colonel von Verdy’s ‘Studies’ to the
    attentive perusal of my brother officers. They supply a want
    which I have often felt during my service in this country,
    namely, a minuter tactical detail of the minor operations of
    the war than any but the most observant and fortunately-placed
    staff-officer is in a position to give. I have read and re-read
    them very carefully, I hope with profit, certainly with great
    interest, and believe that practice, in the sense of these
    ‘Studies,’ would be a valuable preparation for manœuvres on a
    more extended scale.”—Berlin, June, 1872.

=THE SUBSTANTIVE SENIORITY ARMY LIST=, Majors and Captains. By =Captain
F. B. P. White=, 1st W. I. Regiment. 8vo, sewed. 2s. 6d.

=CAVALRY FIELD DUTY.= By =Major-General Von Mirus=. Translated by
=Captain Frank S. Russell=, 14th (King’s) Hussars. Crown 8vo, limp cloth.
7s. 6d.

    ⁂ This is the text-book of instruction in the German cavalry,
    and comprises all the details connected with the military
    duties of cavalry soldiers on service. The translation is made
    from a new edition, which contains the modifications introduced
    consequent on the experiences of the late war. The great
    interest that students feel in all the German military methods,
    will, it is believed, render this book especially acceptable at
    the present time.

=DISCIPLINE AND DRILL.= Four Lectures delivered to the London Scottish
Rifle Volunteers. By =Captain S. Flood Page=. A New and Cheaper Edition.
Price 1s.

    “One of the best-known and coolest-headed of the metropolitan
    regiments, whose adjutant moreover has lately published an
    admirable collection of lectures addressed by him to the men of
    his corps.—_Times._

    “The very useful and interesting work.”—_Volunteer Service
    Gazette._




_INDIA AND THE EAST._


=THE ORIENTAL SPORTING MAGAZINE.= A Reprint of the first 5 Volumes, in 2
Volumes, demy 8vo. price 28s.

    These volumes contain many quaint and clever papers, among
    which we may mention the famous Sporting Songs written by S.
    Y. S., of “The Boar, Saddle, Spur, and Spear,” &c., &c.—Capt.
    MORRIS, of the Bombay Army; as well as descriptions of Hog
    Hunts, Fox Hunts, Lion Hunts, Tiger Hunts, and Cheeta Hunts;

In 1 vol. Post 8vo. 6s.

    “Full of all sorts of useful information to the English settler
    or traveller in India.”—_Standard._

    “One of the most valuable books ever published in
    India—valuable for its sound information, its careful array
    of pertinent facts, and its sterling common sense. It is a
    publisher’s as well as an author’s ‘hit,’ for it supplies
    a want which few persons may have discovered, but which
    everybody will at once recognise when once the contents of
    the book have been mastered. The medical part of the work is
    invaluable.”—_Calcutta Guardian._

=THE MEDICAL GUIDE FOR ANGLO-INDIANS.= Being a Compendium of advice

In 1 vol. Demy 8vo. 16s. Illustrated with Maps and Diagrams.

    “An admirable and exhaustive geographical, political, and
    industrial survey.”—_Athenæum._

    “The usefulness of this compact and methodical summary of the
    most authentic information relating to countries whose welfare
    is intimately connected with our own, should obtain for Mr.
    Lewin Bowring’s work a good place among treatises of its
    kind.”—_Daily News._

    “Interesting even to the general reader, but more especially so
    to those who may have a special concern in that portion of our
    Indian Empire.”—_Post._

=EDUCATIONAL COURSE OF SECULAR SCHOOL BOOKS FOR INDIA.= Edited by =J. S.
Laurie=, of the Inner Temple, Barrister-at-Law; formerly H.M. Inspector
of Schools, England; Assistant Royal Commissioner, Ireland; Special
Commissioner, African Settlements; Director of Public Instruction, Ceylon.

    EXTRACT FROM PROSPECTUS.

    The Editor has undertaken to frame for India,—what he has been
    eminently successful in doing for England and her colonies,—a
    series of educational works, which he hopes will prove as
    suitable for the peculiar wants of the country as they will be
    consistent with the leading idea above alluded to. Like all
    beginnings, his present instalments are necessarily somewhat
    meagre and elementary; but he only awaits official and public
    approval to complete, within a comparatively brief period,
    his contemplated plan of a specific and fairly comprehensive
    series of works in the various leading vernaculars of the
    Indian continent. Meanwhile, those on his general catalogue
    may be found suitable, in their present form, for use in the
    Anglo-vernacular and English schools of India.

_The following Works are now ready_:—

                                                       s. d.

    coins of currency.”—_Inverness Courier._

8vo. 4s. 6d.

    “A conceit abounding in prettiness.”—_Examiner._

    “Contains as clear evidence as a book can contain that its

5s.

    “Genuine power displayed.”—_Examiner._

    “ ... Poetical feeling is manifest here, and the diction of the
    poem is unimpeachable.”—_Pall Mall Gazette._

    “He has successfully attempted what has seldom before been
    well done, viz., the treatment of subjects not in themselves
    poetical from a poetic point of view.”—_Graphic._

    a downrightness of expression which does not shrink from even
    slang if it seem best fitted for his purpose.”—_Illustrated
    London News._

=SONGS OF LIFE AND DEATH.= By =John Payne=, Author of “Intaglios,”
“Sonnets,” “The Masque of Shadows,” etc. Crown 8vo. 5s.

    “The art of ballad-writing has long been lost in England, and
    Mr. Payne may claim to be its restorer. It is a perfect delight
    to meet with such a ballad as ‘May Margaret’ in the present
    volume.”—_Westminster Review._

=ASPROMONTE, AND OTHER POEMS.= Second Edition, cloth. 4s. 6d.

    “The volume is anonymous, but there is no reason for the
    author to be ashamed of it. The ‘Poems of Italy’ are evidently
    inspired by genuine enthusiasm in the cause espoused; and
    one of them, ‘The Execution of Felice Orsini,’ has much
    poetic merit, the event celebrated being told with dramatic
    force.”—_Athenæum._

    “The verse is fluent and free.”—_Spectator._

=A NEW VOLUME OF SONNETS.= By the =Rev. C. Tennyson Turner=. Crown 8vo.
4s. 6d.

    “Mr. Turner is a genuine poet; his song is sweet and pure,
    beautiful in expression, and often subtle in thought.”—_Pall
    Mall Gazette._

    “The dominant charm of all these sonnets is the pervading
    presence of the writer’s personality, never obtruded but always
    impalpably diffused. The light of a devout, gentle, and kindly
    spirit, a delicate and graceful fancy, a keen intelligence
    irradiates these thoughts.”—_Contemporary Review._

=GOETHE’S FAUST.= A New Translation in Rime. By the =Rev. C. Kegan Paul=.
Crown 8vo. 6s.

    “His translation is the most minutely accurate that has yet
    been produced....”—_Examiner._

    “Mr. Paul evidently understands ‘Faust,’ and his translation is
    as well suited to convey its meaning to English readers as any
    we have yet seen.”—_Edinburgh Daily Review._

    “Mr. Paul is a zealous and a faithful interpreter.”—_Saturday
    Review._

=THE DREAM AND THE DEED, AND OTHER POEMS.= By =Patrick Scott=, Author of
“Footpaths between Two Worlds,” etc. Fcap. 8vo, cloth, 5s.

    energy.”—_Edinburgh Daily Review._

Edition.

    “These poems will assuredly take high rank among the class to
    which they belong.”—_British Quarterly Review, April 1st._

    “If these poems are the mere preludes of a mind growing in
    power and in inclination for verse, we have in them the promise
    of a fine poet.”—_Spectator, February 17th._

    “No extracts could do justice to the exquisite tones, the
    felicitous phrasing and delicately wrought harmonies of some of
    these poems.”—_Nonconformist, March 27th._

    “It has a purity and delicacy of feeling like morning
    air.”—_Graphic, March 16th._

=THE LEGENDS OF ST. PATRICK AND OTHER POEMS.= By =Aubrey de Vere=. Crown
8vo. 5s.

    “Mr. De Vere’s versification in his earlier poems is
    characterised by great sweetness and simplicity. He is master
    of his instrument, and rarely offends the ear with false notes.
    Poems such as these scarcely admit of quotation, for their
    charm is not, and ought not to be, found in isolated passages;
    but we can promise the patient and thoughtful reader much
    pleasure in the perusal of this volume.”—_Pall Mall Gazette._

    “We have marked, in almost every page, excellent touches from
    which we know not how to select. We have but space to commend
    the varied structure of his verse, the carefulness of his
    grammar, and his excellent English.”—_Saturday Review._

    appreciative reception.”—_Athenæum._

=SEETA.= By =Colonel Meadows Taylor=, Author of “Tara,” “Ralph Darnell,”
&c. Crown 8vo. 3 vols.

    “The story is well told, native life is admirably
    described, and the petty intrigues of native rulers, and
    their hatred of the English, mingled with fear lest the
    latter should eventually prove the victors, are cleverly
    depicted.”—_Athenæum._

    “We cannot speak too highly of Colonel Meadows Taylor’s
    book.... We would recommend all novel-readers to purchase it at
    the earliest opportunity.”—_John Bull._

    “Thoroughly interesting and enjoyable reading.”—_Examiner._

=HESTER MORLEY’S PROMISE.= By =Hesba Stretton=. 3 vols.

    “‘Hester Morley’s Promise’ is much better than the average
    novel of the day; it has much more claim to critical
    consideration as a piece of literary work,—not mere
    mechanism. The pictures of a narrow society—narrow of
    soul and intellect—in which the book abounds, are very
    clever.”—_Spectator._

    “Its charm lies not so much, perhaps, in any special
    excellence in character, drawing, or construction—though all
    the characters stand out clearly and are well sustained, and
    the interest of the story never flags—as in general tone and
    colouring.”—_Observer._

=THE DOCTOR’S DILEMMA.= By =Hesba Stretton=, Author of “Little Meg,” &c.,
&c. Crown 8vo. 3 vols.

    “A fascinating story which scarcely flags in interest from the

    something to the result.”—_British Quarterly Review._

8vo. 10s. 6d.

    “A very readable and interesting book.”—_United Service
    Gazette_, June 28, 1873.

    “Some interesting letters are introduced, amongst others,
    several from the late King William IV.”—_Spectator._

    “Well and pleasantly told. There are also some capital
    descriptions of English country life in the last century,
    presenting a vivid picture of England before the introduction
    of railways, and the busy life accompanying them.”—_Evening
    Standard._

=JOHANNES OLAF.= By =E. de Wille=. Translated by =F. E. Bunnett=. Crown
8vo. 3 vols.

8vo.

    “A finished and delicate cabinet picture, no line is
    without its purpose, but all contribute to the unity of the
    work.”—_Athenæum._

    “For the delicacies of character-drawing, for play of incident,
    and for finish of style, we must refer our readers to the story
    itself.”—_Daily News._

    “This undeniably pleasing story.”—_Pall Mall Gazette._

=VANESSA.= By the Author of “Thomasina.” 2 vols. Crown 8vo. [_Shortly._

=THE STORY OF SIR EDWARD’S WIFE.= By =Hamilton Marshall=, Author of “For
Very Life.” 1 vol. Crown 8vo.

    “There are many clever conceits in it.... Mr. Hamilton Marshall
    can tell a story closely and pleasantly.”—_Pall Mall Gazette._

=LINKED AT LAST.= By =F. E. Bunnett=. 1 vol. Crown 8vo.

    “‘Linked at Last’ contains so much of pretty description,
    natural incident, and delicate portraiture, that the reader who
    once takes it up will not be inclined to relinquish it without
    concluding the volume.”—_Morning Post._

    “A very charming story.”—_John Bull._

=PERPLEXITY.= By =Sydney Mostyn=. 3 vols. Crown 8vo.

    graphically told.”—_Daily News._

years ago. With a Preface, by =Sir H. Bartle E. Frere, G.C.S.I.=, &c. 2
vols. Crown 8vo. Price 21s.

    “There is a quaintness and simplicity in the roguery of the
    hero that makes his life as attractive as that of Guzman
    d’Alfarache or Gil Blas, and so we advise our readers not to
    be dismayed at the length of Pandurang Hari, but to read it
    resolutely through. If they do this they cannot, we think, fail

    philosophy.”—_Athenæum._

    “There is a positive fragrance as of newly-mown hay about it,

    writes an outline history of the Hebrew nation from Abraham
