How much do you think we spend altogether on our libraries, public or private, as compared with what we spend on our horses? If a man spends lavishly on his library, you call him mad--a bibliomaniac. But you never call one a horse-maniac, though men ruin themselves every day by their horses, and you do not hear of people ruining themselves by their books. Or, to go lower still, how much do you think the contents of the book-shelves of the United Kingdom, public and private, would fetch, as compared with the contents of its wine-cellars? What position would its expenditure on literature take as compared with its expenditure on luxurious eating? We talk of food for the mind, as of food for the body: now, a good book contains such food inexhaustible: it is provision for life, and for the best part of us; yet how long most people would look at the best book before they would give the price of a large turbot for it! Though there have been men who have pinched their stomachs and bared their backs to buy a book, whose libraries were cheaper to them, I think, in the end, than most men’s dinners are. We are few of us put to such a trial, and more the pity; for, indeed, a precious thing is all the more precious to us if it has been won by work or economy; and if public libraries were half as costly as public dinners, or books cost the tenth part of what bracelets do, even foolish men and women might sometimes suspect there was good in reading as well as in munching and sparkling; whereas the very cheapness of literature is making even wiser people forget that if a book is worth reading it is worth buying._”--SESAME AND LILIES; OR, KING’S TREASURES.

R. HAWEIS, Author of “Chaucer for Children.” With nearly One Hundred Illustrations by the Author. “_A most interesting book, full of valuable hints and suggestions.... If young ladies would but lend their ears for a little to Mrs. Haweis, we are quite sure that it would result in their being at once more tasteful, more happy, and more healthy than they now often are, with their false hair, high heels, tight corsets, and ever so much else of the same sort._”--NONCONFORMIST. * * * * * Crown 4to, containing 24 Plates beautifully printed in Colours, with descriptive Text, cloth extra, gilt, 6_s._; illustrated boards, 3_s._ 6_d._ _Æsop’s Fables._ Translated into Human Nature. By C. H. BENNETT. “_For fun and frolic the new version of Æsop’s Fables must bear away the palm.

But our Bank of Arts notes ought to be, when the bank is_ HENRY BLACKBURN’S & CO., _and the notes are his Grosvenor Gallery Notes, and his Academy Notes for 1878. Never were more unmistakable cases of “value received,” than theirs who purchase these two wonderful shillingsworths--the best aids to memory, for the collections they relate to, that have ever been produced. The Illustrations, excellent records of the pictures, in many cases from sketches by the painters, are full of spirit, and, for their scale, wonderfully effective; the remarks terse, and to the point. After Punch’s Own Guide to the Academy, and the Grosvenor, the best, he has no hesitation in saying, are Mr. Blackburn’s._”--PUNCH, June 7, 1878.

Aiming, as may be inferred from its name, at supplying the most refined and cultivated section of London society with intellectual pabulum suited to its requirements, it sprang at once into public favour, and has since remained one of the most extensively read and widely circulated of periodicals. In passing into new hands it has experienced no structural change or modification. Increased energy and increased capital have been employed in elevating it to the highest standard of excellence, but all the features that had won public appreciation have been retained, and the Magazine still seeks its principal support in the homes of Belgravia. As the means through which the writer most readily reaches the heart of the general public, and in consequence as the most important of aids in the establishment of morals and the formation of character, fiction still remains a principal feature in the Magazine. Two Serial Stories accordingly run through its pages; supplemented by short Stories, Novelettes, and narrative or dramatic Sketches: whilst Essays, Social, Biographical, and Humorous; Scientific Discoveries brought to the level of popular comprehension, and treated with a light touch; Poetry, of the highest character; and records of Adventure and Travel, form the remaining portion of the contents. Especial care is now bestowed upon the illustrations, of which no fewer than four appear in each number. Beyond the design of illustrating the article they accompany, these aim at maintaining a position as works of art, both as regards drawing and engraving. In short, whatever claims the Magazine before possessed to favour have now been enhanced, and the Publishers can but leave the result to a public that has seldom failed to appreciate all earnest, persistent, and well-directed efforts for its amusement and benefit._ ⁂ _The THIRTY-FIFTH Volume of BELGRAVIA, elegantly bound in crimson cloth, full gilt side and back, gilt edges, price_ 7_s._ 6_d._, _is now ready.--Handsome Cases for binding the volume can be had at 2s. each._ * * * * * THIRD EDITION, crown 8vo, cloth extra, gilt, 6_s._ _Boudoir Ballads_: Vers de Société.

BELLOW, Portrait of the Author, and 50 Illustrations. “_Not many months before my friend’s death, he had sent me two sketches of a young American writer (Bret Harte), far away in California (‘The Outcasts of Poker Flat,’ and another), in which he had found such subtle strokes of character as he had not anywhere else in late years discovered; the manner resembling himself, but the matter fresh to a degree that had surprised him; the painting in all respects masterly, and the wild rude thing painted a quite wonderful reality. I have rarely known him more honestly moved._”--FORSTER’S LIFE OF DICKENS. * * * * * Crown 8vo, cloth extra, gilt, 7_s._ 6_d._ _Brand’s Observations on Popular Antiquities_, chiefly Illustrating the Origin of our Vulgar Customs, Ceremonies, and Superstitions.

Considered merely as a composition, it deserves to be classed among the best specimens of English prose which our age has produced.... The style is agreeable, clear, and manly, and when it rises into eloquence, rises without effort or ostentation.

Altogether, this is a very pleasant volume for the tables of country gentlemen, or of those town gentlemen who, like Mr. Black’s hero and heroine, divide their time between “Green Pastures and Piccadilly._”--DAILY NEWS. “_An amusing volume of sketches and adventures in the hunting-field, drawn with great spirit, a keen sense of humour and fun, and no lack of observation._”--SPECTATOR. * * * * * Two Vols. imperial 8vo, cloth extra, gilt, the Plates beautifully printed in Colours, £3 3_s._ _Catlin’s Illustrations of the Manners, Customs, and Condition of the North American Indians_: the result of Eight Years of Travel and Adventure among the Wildest and most Remarkable Tribes now existing.

In many cases well-executed plans of actions are given._”--MORNING POST. “_Even a bare record of a corps which has so often been under fire, and has borne a part in important engagements all over the world, could not prove otherwise than full of matter acceptable to the military reader._”--ATHENÆUM. * * * * * Crown 8vo, cloth extra, gilt, with Portraits, 7_s._ 6_d._ _Creasy’s Memoirs of Eminent Etonians_; with Notices of the Early History of Eton College.

The book was a favourite a quarter of a century ago, and it has maintained its reputation.

The work is eminently interesting._”--SCOTSMAN. * * * * * To be Completed in Twenty-four Parts, quarto, at 5_s._ each, profusely illustrated by Coloured and Plain Plates and Wood Engravings, _Cyclopædia of Costume_; or, A Dictionary of Dress--Regal, Ecclesiastical, Civil, and Military--from the Earliest Period in England to the reign of George the Third.

The pedigrees seem to have been constructed with great care, and are a valuable addition to the genealogical history of the county. Mr. Cussans appears to have done his work conscientiously, and to have spared neither time, labour, nor expense to render his volumes worthy of ranking in the highest class of County Histories._”--ACADEMY. * * * * * Demy 8vo, cloth extra, 12_s._ 6_d._ _Doran’s Memories of our Great Towns._ With Anecdotic Gleanings concerning their Worthies and their Oddities.

Both Series Complete. “_The illustrations of this volume ... are of quite sterling and admirable art, of a class precisely parallel in elevation to the character of the tales which they illustrate; and the original etchings, as I have before said in the Appendix to my ‘Elements of Drawing,’ were unrivalled in masterfulness of touch since Rembrandt (in some qualities of delineation, unrivalled even by him).... To make somewhat enlarged copies of them, looking at them through a magnifying glass, and never putting two lines where Cruikshank has put only one, would be an exercise in decision and severe drawing which would leave afterwards little to be learnt in schools._”--_Extract from Introduction by_ JOHN RUSKIN. * * * * * One Vol. crown 8vo, cloth extra, 9_s._ _Gilbert’s (W.

While maintaining an historical continuity which dates back to the reign of George the Second, there will be no attempt to burden the present with the weight of a distant past, or to adhere slavishly to traditions the application of which is unsuited to the altered conditions of society at the present time. It is sought to render the Magazine to the gentleman of to-day what in earlier times it proved to the gentleman of a past generation. New features will be introduced to take the place of those which disappear; in the most important respects, however, the connecting links between the present and the past will be closest. Biography and History, which have always formed a conspicuous portion of the contents, will retain the prominence assigned them, and will be treated with the added breadth that springs from increased familiarity with authorities and more exact appreciation of the province of the Biographer and the Historian. Science, which confers upon the age special eminence, will have its latest conclusions and forecasts presented in a manner which shall bring them within the grasp of the general reader. The philosophical aspect of Politics, the matters which affect Imperial interests, will be separated from the rivalries of party, and will receive a due share of attention. Archæology (under which comprehensive head may be included Genealogy, Topography, and other similar matters), Natural History, Sport and Adventure, Poetry, Belles Lettres, Art in all its manifestations, will constitute a portion of the contents; and Essays upon social subjects will, as heretofore, be interspersed. Under the head of Table Talk matters of current interest will be discussed, and facts of historic value will be preserved. A Work of Fiction by some novelist of highest position will run through the pages of the Magazine, and will be illustrated by artists of known excellence. With a full sense of what is involved in their promise, and with a firm resolution to abide by their pledges, the Publishers undertake to spare no exertion that is necessary to secure the highest class of contributions, to place the Magazine in the first rank of serials, and to fit it to take its place on the table and on the shelves of all classes of cultivated Englishmen._ ⁂ _Now ready, the Volume for_ JANUARY _to_ JUNE, 1878, _cloth extra, price 8s. 6d.; and Cases for binding, price 2s. each_. * * * * * Demy 4to, cloth extra, with Illustrations, 31_s._ 6_d._ _Gillray the Caricaturist_: The Story of his Life and Times, with Anecdotal Descriptions of his Engravings.

Mr. Hueffer claims for his volume the praise of being the first adequate study on so famous a subject as the Troubadours which has appeared in the English language; and we believe that we must allow that he is right. His book will be found exceedingly interesting and valuable.... It is a grateful task to review a volume where so firm aground of scholarship is under our feet, and where there is so little need to be on the watch for instances of inaccuracy or want of knowledge....

By GEORGE HOWELL. “_A complete account of trades unions, involving the most candid statement of their objects and aspirations, their virtues and faults, is of great value; and such Mr. Howell’s book will be found by those who consult it.... Far from being the impassioned utterance of an advocate, it is, on the contrary, a calm authoritative statement of facts, and the expression of the views of the workmen and their leaders.... The book is a storehouse of facts, some of them extremely well arranged.... His book is of profound interest. We have no hesitation in giving it our hearty praise._”--ECHO. “_This book is an attempt, and on the whole a successful attempt, to place the work of trade unions in the past, and their objects in the future, fairly before the public from the working man’s point of view._”--PALL MALL GAZETTE. * * * * * Atlas folio, half morocco, gilt, £5 5_s._ _The Italian Masters_: Autotype Facsimiles of Original Drawings in the British Museum.

By BRIDGET and JULIA KAVANAGH. With Thirty Illustrations by J. MOYR SMITH. “_Genuine new fairy stories of the old type, some of them as delightful as the best of Grimm’s ‘German Popular Stories.’... For the most part, the stories are downright, thorough-going fairy stories of the most admirable kind.... Mr. Moyr Smith’s illustrations, too, are admirable. Look at that white rabbit. Anyone would see at the first glance that he is a rabbit with a mind, and a very uncommon mind too--that he is a fairy rabbit, and that he is posing as chief adviser to some one--without reading even a word of the story. Again, notice the fairy-like effect of the little picture of the fairy-bird ‘Don’t-forget-me,’ flying away back into fairy-land. A more perfectly dream-like impression of fairy-land has hardly been given in any illustration of fairy tales within our knowledge._”--SPECTATOR. * * * * * Small 8vo, cloth extra, 5_s._ _Lamb’s Poetry for Children, and Prince Dorus._ Carefully reprinted from unique copies. “_The quaint and delightful little book, over the recovery of which all the hearts of his lovers are yet warm with rejoicing._”--Mr. SWINBURNE, in the ATHENÆUM. * * * * * Crown 8vo, cloth, full gilt, 6_s._ (uniform with “Boudoir Ballads.”) _Leigh’s A Town Garland._ By HENRY S.

We do not recollect any modern work in which states of thought are so freely developed, except the ‘Torquato Tasso’ of Goethe. The play is a work of art in the same sense that a play of Sophocles is a work of art; it is one simple idea in a state of gradual development.... ‘The Favourite of Fortune’ is one of the most important additions to the stock of English prose comedy that has been made during the present century._”--TIMES. * * * * * Crown 8vo, cloth extra, 8_s._ _Marston’s (Philip B.)

MALLOCK. “_The great charm of the book lies in the clever and artistic way the dialogue is managed, and the diverse and various expedients by which, whilst the love of thought on every page is kept at a high pitch, it never loses its realistic aspect.... It is giving high praise to a work of this sort to say that it absolutely needs to be taken as a whole, and that disjointed extracts here and there would entirely fail to convey any idea of the artistic unity, the careful and conscientious sequence of what is evidently the brilliant outcome of much patient thought and study.... Enough has now been said to recommend these volumes to any reader who desires something above the usual novel, something which will open up lanes of thought in his own mind, and insensibly introduce a higher standard into his daily life.... Here is novelty indeed, as well as originality, and to anyone who can appreciate or understand ‘The New Republic’ it cannot fail to be a rare treat._”--OBSERVER. * * * * * Square 8vo, cloth extra, with numerous Illustrations, 9_s._ _North Italian Folk._ By Mrs. COMYNS CARR.

If anyone wants to really know the North Italian folk, we can honestly advise him to omit the journey, and sit down to read Mrs. Carr’s pages instead.... Description with Mrs. Carr is a real gift.... It is rarely that a book is so happily illustrated._”--CONTEMPORARY REVIEW. * * * * * _MOORE’S HITHERTO UNCOLLECTED WRITINGS._ Crown 8vo, cloth extra, with Frontispiece, 9_s._ _Prose and Verse--Humorous, Satirical, and Sentimental--by THOMAS MOORE._ Including Suppressed Passages from the Memoirs of Lord Byron. Chiefly from the Author’s MSS., and all hitherto Inedited and Uncollected. Edited, with Notes, by RICHARD HERNE SHEPHERD. “_Hitherto Thomas Moore has been mostly regarded as one of the lighter writers merely--a sentimental poet_ par excellence, _in whom the ‘rapture of love and of wine’ determined him strictly to certain modes of sympathy and of utterance, and these to a large extent of a slightly artificial character. This volume will serve to show him in other, and certainly as attractive, aspects, while, at the same time, enabling us to a considerable extent to see how faithfully he developed himself on the poetical or fanciful side.... This is a book which claims, as it ought to obtain, various classes of readers, and we trust that the very mixed elements of interest in it may not conflict with its obtaining them. For the lightest reader there is much to enjoy; for the most thoughtful something to ponder over; and the thanks of both are due to editor and publisher alike_.”--NONCONFORMIST. * * * * * _NEW WORK by the Author of “THE NEW REPUBLIC.”_ Crown 8vo, cloth extra, 3_s._ 6_d._ _The New Paul and Virginia_; or, Positivism on an Island.

BETHAM-EDWARDS With a Frontispiece by W. BOWLES. “_A noble novel. Its teaching is elevated, its story is sympathetic, and the kind of feeling its perusal leaves behind is that more ordinarily derived from music or poetry than from prose fiction. Few works in modern fiction stand as high in our estimation as this._”--SUNDAY TIMES. _Olympia._ By R. E.

The scenery will be strange to most readers, and in many passages the aspects of Nature are very cleverly described. Moreover, the book is a study of a very curious and interesting state of society. A novel which no novel-reader should miss, and which people who generally shun novels may enjoy._”--SATURDAY REVIEW. _Patricia Kemball._ By E. LYNN LINTON. With Frontispiece by G.

It is a novel which may be sipped like choice wine; it is one to linger over and ponder; to be enjoyed like fine, sweet air, or good company, for it is pervaded by a perfume of honesty and humour, of high feeling, of kindly penetrating humour, of good sense, and wide knowledge of the world, of a mind richly cultivated and amply stored. There is scarcely a page in these volumes in which we do not find some fine remark or felicitous reflection of piercing, yet gentle and indulgent irony._”--DAILY NEWS. * * * * * _MRS.

We can conceive of no better book for the holiday tour or the seaside._”--NONCONFORMIST. “_Very delightful reading; just the sort of book which an angler or a rambler will be glad to have in the side pocket of his jacket.

Chatto and Windus belongs the merit of having done more to facilitate the critical study of the text of our great dramatist than all the Shakespeare clubs and societies put together. A complete facsimile of the celebrated First Folio edition of 1623 for half-a-guinea is at once a miracle of cheapness and enterprise. Being in a reduced form, the type is necessarily rather diminutive, but it is as distinct as in a genuine copy of the original, and will be found to be as useful and far more handy to the student than the latter._”--ATHENÆUM. * * * * * Two Vols. crown 8vo, cloth extra, 18_s._ _The School of Shakspere._ Including “The Life and Death of Captain Thomas Stukeley,” with a New Life of Stucley, from Unpublished Sources; “Nobody and Somebody,” “Histriomastix,” “The Prodigal Son,” “Jack Drum’s Entertainement,” “A Warning for Fair Women,” with Reprints of the Accounts of the Murder; and “Faire Em.” Edited, with Introductions and Notes, and an Account of Robert Green and his Quarrels with Shakspere, by RICHARD SIMPSON, B.A., Author of “The Philosophy of Shakspere’s Sonnets,” “The Life of Campion,” &c.

The ‘Battle of the Books’ is such an improvement on the similar combat in the Lutrin, that we can hardly own it as an imitation._”--HALLAM. “_If he had never written either the ‘Tale of a Tub’ or ‘Gulliver’s Travels,’ his name merely as a poet would have come down to us, and have gone down to posterity, with well-earned honours._”--HAZLITT. * * * * * Crown 8vo, cloth extra, with Illustrations, 7_s._ 6_d._ _Strutt’s Sports and Pastimes of the People of England_; the Rural and Domestic Recreations, May Games, Mummeries, Shows, Processions, Pageants, and Pompous Spectacles, from the Earliest Period to the Present Time.

With Hundreds of Wood Engravings and Five Coloured Plates, from Mr. Thackeray’s Original Drawings. “_It would have been a real loss to bibliographical literature had copyright difficulties deprived the general public of this very amusing collection. One of Thackeray’s habits, from his schoolboy days, was to ornament the margins and blank pages of the books he had in use with caricature illustrations of their contents. This gave special value to the sale of his library, and is almost cause for regret that it could not have been preserved in its integrity. Thackeray’s place in literature is eminent enough to have made this an interest to future generations. The anonymous editor has done the best that he could to compensate for the lack of this. It is an admirable addendum, not only to his collected works, but also to any memoir of him that has been, or that is likely to be, written._”--BRITISH QUARTERLY REVIEW. * * * * * Crown 8vo, cloth extra, gilt edges, with Illustrations, 7_s._ 6_d._ _Thomson’s Seasons and Castle of Indolence._ With a Biographical and Critical Introduction by ALLAN CUNNINGHAM, and over 50 fine Illustrations on Steel and Wood. * * * * * Crown 8vo, cloth extra, with Coloured Illustrations, 7_s._ 6_d._ _J.

Thoreau’s story is one of the most attractive stories of our time, and we have to thank Mr. Page for reproducing it for us.

Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread works not protected by U.S. copyright law in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain "Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by your equipment. 1.F.2.

INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production, promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works, harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees, that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause. Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from people in all walks of life. Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at www.gutenberg.org Section 3.

Newby Chief Executive and Director gbnewby@pglaf.org Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations ($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt status with the IRS. The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who approach us with offers to donate. International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works. Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: www.gutenberg.org This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
