Giannetta: A Girl's Story of Herself. By Rosa Mulholland. With
8 full-page Illustrations by Lockhart Bogle. Crown 8vo, cloth
elegant, _5s._
"Giannetta is a true heroine--warm-hearted, self-sacrificing, and,
as all good women nowadays are, largely touched with the enthusiasm
of humanity. The illustrations are unusually good, and combine with
the binding and printing to make this one of the most attractive
gift-books of the season."--_The Academy._
"No better book could be selected for a young girl's reading, as
its object is evidently to hold up a mirror, in which are seen some
of the brightest and noblest traits in the female
character."--_Schoolmistress._
Perseverance Island: Or the Robinson Crusoe of the 19th Century. By
Douglas Frazar. With 12 full-page Illustrations. Crown 8vo,
cloth elegant, _5s._
"This second Robinson Crusoe is certainly a marvellous man. His
determination to overcome all difficulties, and his subsequent
success, should alone make this a capital book for boys. It is
altogether a worthy successor to the ancient Robinson
Crusoe."--_Glasgow Herald._
Gulliver's Travels. Illustrated by more than 100 Pictures by Gordon
Browne. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, _5s._
"By help of the admirable illustrations, and a little judicious
skipping, it has enchanted a family party of ages varying from six
to sixty. Which of the other Christmas books could stand this
test?"--Journal of Education.
"Mr. Gordon Browne is, to my thinking, incomparably the most
artistic, spirited, and brilliant of our illustrators of books for
boys, and one of the most humorous also, as his illustrations of
'Gulliver' amply testify."--Truth.
