ByJetta S. Wolff, author of “The Story of the Paris Churches.” Illustrated. Crown 8vo. 10s. 6d. net.

In this most attractive volume we have the ideal guide-book, for, besides fulfilling all the functions of a guide, Miss Wolff has a fine literary style and considerable historical knowledge, as well as a very intimate knowledge of all the historical sites and buildings of Paris. Her interesting text is pleasantly aided by numerous drawings in line.

These books have found so wide a circle of readers in America that it has been thought advisable to issue on this side editions which have been enlarged and brought up to date for the convenience of the thousands of tourists who, now that foreign travel is permitted, will find the need of a comprehensive and adequate guide to the art treasures of Europe. The “stay-at-home,” no less than the tourist, will find entertainment and information within its pages.

Times.—“A pleasant surprise—it will bring pleasure to the reader delighted at last to find a work which leaves soldier-work and policies on one side and devotes itself to the discussion of what is nice in Macedonia instead of labouring to expose once again that which is nasty.”

Robert Lynd in theDaily News.—“Captain Monckton has a lively pen. He has enjoyed his life among savages ... and his book is written with the zest of a schoolboy ... a frank and cheerful book.”

Times Literary Supplement.—“Mr. Monckton has written a boys’ book for men. In it something happens on every page.... It is a long book, though not a page too long.”

Daily Mail.—“A book of entrancing interest for boys and their fathers. It is a plain and a true one, and is stranger than fiction. The most remarkable book of travel and exploration since Stanley’s ‘Darkest Africa.’”

“Unconducted Wanderers” is a very amusing travel book of the best sort. After a spell of war work the author and a woman friend went to America, and thence to the South Seas, to Java, the Malay States, Siam, Cambodia, China and Korea. The book is extremely lively in tone and fresh in feeling, and the observations and experiences of the travellers, particularly in China during the Rebellion, are of quite unusual interest.

Evening Standard.—“Those in search of the perfect companion for a lazy afternoon in a hammock will find their wants admirably supplied by ‘Unconducted Wanderers.’ Their Adventures are retailed with an unfailing humorous touch, and the scenery and occupants of these far foreign strands are painted in descriptive language which is always vivid, and at times beautiful.”

Daily News.—“An excellent book.... Colonel Newell has a quick eye for things seen, and a happy interest in history that makes the book something more than a motorist’s guide-book.... Fully illustrated with photographs of great interest and variety.”

Daily Mail.—“Everyone ought to know more about India, and a pleasant way of informing oneself is offered by Colonel Newell’s ‘Topee and Turban in India.’”

Times.-“A record of several motor trips in India, abundantly illustrated, and discursive to just the appropriate length.”

Westminster Gazette.—“In this book Colonel Newell shows that he has been a close student and observer of many things in India and Indian life.”
