_PUBLISHED BY HENRY HOLT & CO._

KEMBLE'S (FRANCES ANN) RECORDS OF A GIRLHOOD.

Large 12mo. With Portrait. $2.50.

"The book is so charming, so entertaining, so stamped with the

impress of a strong, remarkable, various nature, that we feel

almost tormented in being treated to a view only of the youthful

phases of character. Like most of the novels that we read, or don't

read, this volume is the history of a young lady's entrance into

life. Mrs. Kemble's young lady is a very brilliant and charming

one, and our only complaint is that we part company with her too

soon.... What we have here, however, is excellent reading.... She

is naturally a writer; she has a style of her own which is full of

those felicities of expression that indicate the literary

sense."--_Nation_.

THE AMATEUR SERIES.

12mo, blue cloth.

English Actors from Shakespeare to Macready. By HENRY BARTON BAKER.

Two vols. $3.50

"Mr. Baker's business is with the adventures and the art of our

principal players; and he rarely, if ever, departs from his

well-considered plan to discuss the literature of the theatre. His

anecdotes have all an authentic look, and their genuineness is, for

the most part, not to be doubted. The book is extremely rich in

good stories, which are invariably well told."--_Pall Mall

Gazette_.

Moscheles' (Ignatz) Recent Music and Musicians, as described in his

Diaries and Correspondence. Selected by his wife, and adapted from the

original German, by A.D. COLERIDGE, $2.00.

"Full of pleasant gossip. The diary and letters between them

contain notices and criticisms on almost every musical celebrity of

the last half century."--_Pall Mall Gazette_.

Chorley's (H.F.) Recent Art and Society, as described in his

Autobiography and Memoirs. Compiled from the Edition of Henry G.

Hewlett, by C.H. Jones. $2.00.

Wagner's (R.) Art Life and Theories. Selected from his Writings, and

translated by EDWARD L. BURLINGAME. With a preface, a catalogue of

Wagner's published works, and drawings of the Bayreuth Opera House.

$2.00.

"Mr. Burlingame has performed a most useful task with great tact

and taste. The difficulty of rendering Wagner into intelligible

English is almost insuperable, but he has overcome it, and has

given us a book which will not only be interesting to all lovers of

music, but entertaining, at least in some of its chapters, to the

general reader."--_N.Y. Tribune_.

Thornbury's (Walter) Life of J.M.W. Turner, R.A. Founded on Letters

and Papers furnished by his friends and fellow-academicians. With

illustrations, fac-similed in colors, from Turner's original drawings.

$2.75.

"The author has told fully and fearlessly the story of Turner's

life as far as he could learn it, and has filled his pages with

anecdotes which illustrate the painter's character and habits, and

his book is, therefore, one of great interest."--_N.Y. Evening

Post_.

Lewes (George Henry) on Actors and the Art of Acting. $1.50.

"It is valuable, first, as the record of the impressions produced

upon a mind of singular sensibility by many actors of renown, and

lastly, indeed chiefly, because it formulates and reiterates sound

opinions upon the little-understood principles of the art of

acting.... Perhaps the best work in English on the actor's

art."--_Nation_.

Berlioz' Autobiography and Musical Grotesques. $2.00

_PUBLISHED BY HENRY HOLT & CO._

ALBEMARLE'S (GEORGE THOMAS EARL OF) FIFTY YEARS OF MY LIFE. With a

Portrait by JEENS. Large 12mo. $2.50.

"Lord Albemarle has done wisely to publish his Recollections, for

there are few men who have had the opportunities of seeing so much

of life and character as he has, and still fewer who at an advanced

age could write an Autobiography in which we have opinions without

twaddle, gossip without malice, and stories not marred in the

telling."--_London Academy_.

HOUGHTON'S (LORD) MONOGRAPHS, PERSONAL AND SOCIAL.

With Portraits of WALTER SAVAGE LANDOR, CHARLES BULLER, HARRIET LADY

ASHBURTON, and SULEIMAN PASHA. 12mo. $2.00.

"An extremely agreeable volume.... He writes so as to adorn

everything which he touches,"--_London Athenæum_.

"He has something new to tell of every one of his subjects. His

book is a choice olio of fine fruits."--_London Saturday Review_.

JOHNSON'S (ROSSITER) COLLECTIONS OF POEMS.

SINGLE FAMOUS POEMS. Collected and Edited by ROSSITER JOHNSON. Square

12mo, gilt. $2.00.

A pretty volume fit for presentation, made up of celebrated English

poems that have hitherto been printed only in periodicals and other

fugitive places, or are in only such works as are not generally at

hand.

The lover of poetry who is trying to find some English poem that he

can get no trace of except from vague memory, would be quite apt to

meet it in this volume.

PLAY-DAY POEMS. Collected and Edited by ROSSITER JOHNSON.

16mo. (Leisure Hour Series.) $1.00.

This volume contains the best of the humorous poetry published

since Parton's collection in 1856, and also many of the old

favorites.

"Singularly free from anything to offend the taste, or to injure

the health by unsuccessful attempts to produce a laugh. You are not

obliged to throw away a multitude of worthless, or mediocre

specimens, before you light upon a poem which you can truly

enjoy."--_N.Y. Tribune_.

"The most complete and judicious collection of humorous poetry ever

seen in this country."--_Chicago Journal_.

"The collection is a capital one, and will be of peculiar value to

professional and amateur readers."--_Boston Transcript_.

SAINTE-BEUVE'S (C.A.) ENGLISH PORTRAITS. Selected and Translated from

the "Causeries du Lundi." With an Introductory Chapter on Sainte-Beuve's

Life and Writings. 12mo. $2.00.

CONTENTS:--Sainte-Beuve's Life--His Writings--General

Comments--Mary Queen of Scots--Lord Chesterfield--Benjamin

Franklin--Edward Gibbon--William Cowper--English Literature by H.

Taine--Pope as a Poet.

"Probably no one who in our days has written criticism had a surer

power to perceive and discover what is true and beautiful. He makes

us admire more the authors we admired before, and gives new reasons

for our admiration. It is a charming volume, and one that may be

made a companion, in the confident assurance that the better we

know it the better we shall enjoy it."--_Boston Advertiser_.

_PUBLISHED BY HENRY HOLT & CO._

WALLACE'S (D. MACKENZIE) RUSSIA. With two maps. 8vo. $4.00.

"One of the stoutest and most honest pieces of work produced in our

time, and the man who has produced it ... even if he never does

anything more, will not have lived in vain."--_Fortnightly Review_.

"Excellent and interesting ... worthy of the highest praise ... not

a piece of clever book-making, but the result of a large amount of

serious study and thorough research.... We commend his book as a

very valuable account of a very interesting people."--_Nation_

"The book is excellent from first to last, whether we regard its

livelier or its more serious portions."--_London Athenæum_.

BAKER'S (JAMES) TURKEY. 8vo, with two maps. $4.00

"His work, like Mr. Wallace's, is in many parts a revelation, as it

has had no predecessor, which was so founded upon personal

observation, and at the same time so full of that sort of detailed

information about the habits, the customs, the character, and the

life of the people who form its subject, which constitutes the best

possible explanation of history and of current events....

Invaluable to the student, profound or superficial, of Turkish

affairs."--_N.Y. Evening Post_.

BRASSEY'S (MRS.) AROUND THE WORLD IN THE YACHT "SUNBEAM." Our Home on

the Ocean for Eleven Months. With Chart and Illustrations. 8vo.

The history of this leisurely and luxurious cruise of the Brassey

family and a few friends, in their own yacht, is given in such easy

and familiar style as to make the reader feel almost one of the

party.

"We close her book with a wish that, as Alexander sighed for other

worlds to conquer, so there were other worlds for the 'Sunbeam' to

circumnavigate."--_Literary World_.

"It is altogether unlike all other books of travel.... We can but

faintly indicate what the reader may look for in this unrivalled

book."--_London Spectator_.

CREASY'S (SIR EDWARD S.) HISTORY OF THE OTTOMAN TURKS. From the

Beginning of their Empire to the Present Time. Large 12mo. $2.50.

"It presents a vivid and well-connected account of the six

centuries of Turkish growth, conquest, and decline, interwoven with

summary views of institutions, national characteristics, and causes

of success and failure. It embodies also the results of the studies

of a large number of earlier and later writers, and throughout

evinces research, independence of judgment, and candor."--_Nation_.

GROHMAN'S (W.A. BAILLIE) GADDINGS WITH A PRIMITIVE PEOPLE. Being a

Series of Sketches of Tyrolese Life and Customs, 16mo. (Leisure Hour

Series.) $1.00.

"He has a bright, easy style, and, indeed, most of his adventures

are so extraordinary as almost to verge on the brink of the

incredible. We can recommend the book as singularly readable from

the first chapter to the last."--_Saturday Review_.

"This is a book such as the public seldom has the opportunity of

reading; such, indeed, as a necessarily rare combination of

circumstances can alone produce. His volume will indeed amply repay

perusal."--_London Spectator_.

McCOAN'S (J.C.) EGYPT AS IT IS. With a map taken from the most recent

survey. 8vo. $3.75.

"We can recommend 'Egypt as It Is' to our readers as supplying a

want which is most felt--a detailed and a truthful and able account

of the country as it is in its moral, material, and economical

aspect "--_London Athenæum_.

_PUBLISHED BY HENRY HOLT & CO._

GAUTIER'S (THEOPHILE) WORKS.

A WINTER IN RUSSIA. Translated from the French by M.M. RIPLEY. 12mo.

$1.75.

"The book is a charming one, and nothing approaching it in merit

has been written on the outward face of things in

Russia."--_Nation_.

"We do not remember when we have taken up a more fascinating

book."--_Boston Gazette_.

CONSTANTINOPLE. Translated from the French by Robert Howe Gould, M.A.

12mo. $1.75.

"It is never too late in the day to reproduce the sparkling

descriptions and acute reflections of so brilliant a master of

style as the present author."--_N.Y. Tribune_.

JONES' (C.H.) AFRICA: the History of Exploration and Adventure as

given in the leading authorities from Herodotus to Livingstone. By C.H.

Jones. With Map and Illustrations. 8vo. $5.00.

"A cyclopædia of African exploration, and a useful substitute in

the library for the whole list of costly original works on that

subject."--_Boston Advertiser_.

"This volume contains the quintessence of a whole library.... What

makes it peculiarly valuable is its combination of so much material

which is inaccessible to the general reader. The excellent map,

showing the routes of the leading explorers, and the numerous

illustrations increase the value and interest of the

book."--_Boston Globe_.

MORELET'S (ARTHUR) TRAVELS IN CENTRAL AMERICA. Including Accounts of

some Regions Unexplored since the Conquest. Introduction and Notes by

E. GEO. SQUIER. Post 8vo. Illus. $2.00.

"One of the most interesting books of travel we have read for a

long time.... His descriptions are evidently truthful, as he seems

penetrated with true scientific spirit."--_Nation_.

PUMPELLY'S (R.) AMERICA AND ASIA. Notes of a Five Years' Journey

Around the World, and of Residence in Arizona, Japan and China. By

RAPHAEL PUMPELLY, Professor in Harvard University, and some

Japanese color-printing. Fine edition, royal 8vo, tinted paper, gilt

side, $5.00. Cheap edition, post 8vo, plain, $2.50.

"One of the most interesting books of travel we have ever read....

We have great admiration of the book, and feel great respect for

the author for his intelligence, humanity, manliness, and

philosophic spirit, which are conspicuous throughout his

writings."--_Nation_.

"Crowded with entertainment and instruction. A careful reading of

it will give more real acquaintance with both the physical

geography and the ethnology of the northern temperate regions of

both hemispheres than perhaps any other book in existence."--_N.Y.

Evening Post_.

STILLMAN'S (W.J.) CRETAN INSURRECTION OF 1866-7-8. By W.J. STILLMAN,

late U.S. Consul in Crete. 12mo. $1.50.

WHIST (SHORT WHIST). Edited by J.L. Baldwin. The Standard adopted by the

London Clubs. And a Treatise on the Game, by J.C. 18mo, appropriately

decorated, $1.00.

we commend the book to a beginner desirous of playing

well."--_Boston Commonwealth_.
