Mrs. Calvert lived to the age of ninety-two, and there are

⁂ This interesting contribution to Nelson literature is drawn
from the journals and correspondence of the Rev. Edmund Nelson,
Rector of Burnham Thorpe and his youngest daughter, the father
and sister of Lord Nelson. The Rector was evidently a man
of broad views and sympathies, for we find him maintaining
friendly relations with his son and daughter-in-law after their
separation. What is even more strange, he felt perfectly at
liberty to go direct from the house of Mrs. Horatio Nelson in
Norfolk to that of Sir William and Lady Hamilton in London,
where his son was staying. This book shows how completely and
without reserve the family received Lady Hamilton.
A QUEEN OF SHREDS AND PATCHES: The Life of Madame Tallien Notre Dame
de Thermidor. From the last days of the French Revolution, until her

12s. 6d. net.
⁂ Among the many queens of France, queens by right of marriage
with the reigning sovereign, queens of beauty or of intrigue,
the name of Sophie Dawes, the daughter of humble fisherfolk
in the Isle of Wight, better known as "the notorious Mme. de
Feucheres," "The Queen of Chantilly" and "The Montespan de Saint
Leu" in the land which she chose as a suitable sphere in which
to exercise her talents for money-making and for getting on in
the world, stand forth as a proof of what a woman's will can
accomplish when that will is accompanied with an uncommon share
of intelligence.
MARGARET OF FRANCE DUCHESS OF SAVOY. 1523-1574. A Biography with
Photogravure Frontispiece and 16 other Illustrations and Facsimile
Reproductions of Hitherto Unpublished Letters. Demy 8vo. (9 × 5¾
inches.) 12s. 6d. net.
⁂ A time when the Italians are celebrating the Jubilee of
the Italian Kingdom is perhaps no unfitting moment in which to
glance back over the annals of that royal House of Savoy which
has rendered Italian unity possible. Margaret of France may
without exaggeration be counted among the builders of modern
Italy. She married Emanuel Philibert, the founder of Savoyard
greatness: and from the day of her marriage until the day of her
death she laboured to advance the interests of her adopted land.
MADAME DE BRINVILLIERS AND HER TIMES. 1630-1676. By HUGH STOKES. With
a Photogravure Frontispiece and 16 other Illustrations. Demy 8vo. (9 ×
5¾ inches.) 12s. 6d. net.
⁂ The name of Marie Marguerite d'Aubray, Marquise de
Brinvilliers, is famous in the annals of crime, but the true
history of her career is little known. A woman of birth and
rank, she was also a remorseless poisoner, and her trial was
one of the most sensational episodes of the early reign of
Louis XIV. The author was attracted to this curious subject
by Charles le Brun's realistic sketch of the unhappy Marquise
as she appeared on her way to execution. This _chef d'oeuvre_
of misery and agony forms the frontispiece to the volume, and
strikes a fitting keynote to an absorbing story of human passion
and wrong-doing.
THE VICISSITUDES OF A LADY-IN-WAITING. 1735-1821. By EUGENE WELVERT.
Translated from the French by LILIAN O'NEILL. With a Photogravure
Frontispiece and 16 other Illustrations. Demy 8vo. (9 × 5¾ inches.)
12s. 6d. net.
⁂ The Duchesse de Narbonne-Lara was Lady-in-Waiting to Madame
Adelaide, the eldest daughter of Louis XV. Around the stately
figure of this Princess are gathered the most remarkable
characters of the days of the Old Regime, the Revolution and the
first Empire. The great charm of the work is that it takes us
over so much and varied ground. Here, in the gay crowd of ladies
and courtiers, in the rustle of flowery silken panniers, in the
clatter of high-heeled shoes, move the figures of Louis XV.,
Louis XVI., Du Barri and Marie-Antoinette. We catch picturesque
glimpses of the great wits, diplomatists and soldiers of the
time, until, finally we encounter Napoleon Bonaparte.

Miss VIOLETTE MONTAGU. With a Photogravure Frontispiece and
16 other Illustrations. Demy 8vo. (9 × 5¾ inches.) 12s. 6d. net.
⁂ Although much has been written concerning the Empress
Josephine, we know comparatively little about the _veuve_
Beauharnais and the _citoyenne_ Bonaparte, whose inconsiderate
conduct during her husband's absence caused him so much anguish.
We are so accustomed to consider Josephine as the innocent
victim of a cold and calculating tyrant who allowed nothing,
neither human lives nor natural affections, to stand in the
way of his all-conquering will, that this volume will come to
us rather as a surprise. Modern historians are over-fond of
blaming Napoleon for having divorced the companion of his early
years; but after having read the above work, the reader will be
constrained to admire General Bonaparte's forbearance and will
wonder how he ever came to allow her to play the Queen at the
Tuileries.

Illustration. Demy 8vo. (9 × 5¾ inches.) 12s. 6d. net.
⁂ "The greatest living Englishman" was the tribute of his
Continental contemporaries to Sir. Joseph Banks. The author of
his "Life" has, with some enthusiasm, sketched the record of a
man who for a period of half a century filled a very prominent
place in society, but whose name is almost forgotten by the
present generation.

excellent, and worth reading for its own sake."
_Contemporary Review._--"The book's appeal is, of course,
primarily to the music-lover; but there is so much of human
and literary interest in it, such intimate revelation of a
singularly interesting personality, that many who have never
come under the spell of the Pathetic Symphony will be strongly
attracted by what is virtually the spiritual autobiography of
its composer. High praise is due to the translator and editor
for the literary skill with which she has prepared the English
version of this fascinating work.... There have been few
collections of letters published within recent years that give
so vivid a portrait of the writer as that presented to us in
these pages."

SIR MARTIN CONWAY'S NOTE.
Nearly half a century has passed since Mr. W. H. James Weale,
then resident at Bruges, began that long series of patient
investigations into the history of Netherlandish art which was
destined to earn so rich a harvest. When he began work Memlinc
was still called Hemling, and was fabled to have arrived at
Bruges as a wounded soldier. The van Eycks were little more than
legendary heroes. Roger Van der Weyden was little more than a
name. Most of the other great Netherlandish artists were either
wholly forgotten or named only in connection with paintings with
which they had nothing to do. Mr. Weale discovered Gerard David,
and disentangled his principal works from Memlinc's, with which
they were then confused.

JOHN LANE, THE BODLEY HEAD, VIGO STREET, LONDON, W.
Transcriber's Note:
1. Original spelling has been retained where it seems appropriate.
Obvious typograhical errors have been corrected.
2. "Abbé (Henry Essex) Edgeworth de Firmont, who belonged to a junior
branch of the Edgeworthstown family, was confessor to the Princess
Elizabeth, and to Louis XVI on the scaffold, and after the restoration
became chaplain to Louis XVIII."
There seems to be a discrepancy in dates here, as the restoration
happened in 1814, but the Abbe died in 1807. The chaplain to Louis
XVIII was actually Charles de Bouvens.
3. Hyphenated words have been retained as in the original.
4. Superscripts are represented using the carat character, e.g.
D^r or ^{xx}.
