"Mr. Russell Forbes has at last supplied a concise, practical, and
original illustrated handbook for the small price of two shillings.
The object of his historical manual is to tell the facts from personal
study and exploration--biased only for the truth."--_Roman News._
"Full of useful antiquarian lore, and suitably
illustrated."--_Literary World._
"It is compact, well printed, and copiously illustrated with clear
woodcuts."--_Saturday Review._
"A great amount of lucid and well-arranged information about these
curious and interesting early Christian cemeteries."--_Scotsman._
"The book is well illustrated, and is the only one that has ever
appeared in the English language giving facts drawn from a direct
study on the spot."--_Travel._
"Very interesting and valuable. It has the decided advantage of being
written by one thoroughly conversant with the subjects he
treats."--_American Register._
