Now ready, and will be sent by post (free) to any one writing for
them,
DESCRIPTIVE CATALOGUES of BOOKS for SCHOOLS and COLLEGES, and of
CHEMICAL, MEDICAL, and LITERARY WORKS, published by TAYLOR, WALTON,
and MABERLY, 28. Upper Gower Street, and 27. Ivy Lane, Paternoster
Row.
The object of these two Catalogues is, to convey a more satisfactory
notion of the contents of the books in them, than can be drawn from
reading the titles. Instead of laudatory extracts from reviews,
general notices are given of the chief subjects and most prominent
peculiarities of the books. The Catalogues are designed to put
the reader, as far as possible, in the same position as if he had
inspected for himself, at least cursorily, the works described; and,
with this view, care has been taken, in drawing up the notices, merely
to state facts, with but little comment, and no exaggeration whatever.
