Fenn."--_Nottingham Guardian._

of Burne the Lawyer, Preston the Professor, and Lawrence the Sick. By
G. Manville Fenn. With 8 full-page Illustrations by John
Schönberg. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, _5s._
"The narrative will take its readers into scenes that will have
great novelty and attraction for them, and the experiences with the

=Menhardoc:= A Story of Cornish Nets and Mines. By G. Manville
Fenn. With 8 full-page Illustrations by C.J. Staniland.
Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, _5s._
"They are real living boys, with their virtues and faults. The
Cornish fishermen are drawn from life, they are racy of the soil,
salt with the sea-water, and they stand out from the pages in their
jerseys and sea-boots all sprinkled with silvery pilchard
scales."--_Spectator._
"A description of Will Marion's descent into a flooded mine is
excellent. Josh is a delightfully amusing character. We may
cordially praise the illustrations."--_Saturday Review._
=Mother Carey's Chicken:= Her Voyage to the Unknown Isle. By G.
Manville Fenn. With 8 full-page Illustrations by A.
Forestier. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, _5s._
"Jules Verne himself never constructed a more marvellous tale. It
contains the strongly marked English features that are always
conspicuous in Mr. Fenn's stories--a humour racy of the British
soil, the manly vigour of his sentiment, and wholesome moral
lessons. For anything to match his realistic touch we must go to
Daniel Defoe."--_Christian Leader._
"When we get to the 'Unknown Isle,' the story becomes exciting. Mr.
Fenn keeps his readers in a suspense that is not intermitted for a
moment, and the _dénouement_ is a surprise which is as probable as
it is startling."--_Spectator._
=Patience Wins:= Or, War in the Works. By G. Manville Fenn.
With 8 full-page Illustrations by Gordon Browne. Crown 8vo,
cloth elegant, _5s._
"An excellent story, the interest being sustained from first to
last. One of the best books of its kind which has come before us
this year."--_Saturday Review._
"Mr. Fenn is at his best in _Patience Wins_. It is sure to prove
acceptable to youthful readers, and will give a good idea of that
which was the real state of one of our largest manufacturing towns
not many years ago."--_Guardian._
=Nat the Naturalist:= A Boy's Adventures in the Eastern Seas. By G.
Manville Fenn. With 8 full-page Pictures. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant,
_5s._
"Among the best of the many good books for boys that have come out
this season."--_Times._
"This sort of book encourages independence of character, develops
resource, and teaches a boy to keep his eyes open."--_Saturday
Review._
