LINKS WITH THE PAST.
By MRS. CHARLES BAGOT.
Demy 8vo., with Photogravure Portrait, 16s.
THIRD IMPRESSION.
'These "Links with the Past" are well worth reading, for not only do
they introduce you to many agreeable personalities, but they illumine
in unexpected quarters a past that is fast vanishing beyond the reach
of personal recollections.'--_Morning Post_.
'Few books of its kind that have lately appeared have been so
entertaining and so full of interest as this, which, while it only
professes to offer passing glimpses of bygone days, is a far more
trustworthy and vivid record of social life during the greater part of
the last century than many works of greater pretensions.'--_World_.
'Mrs. Bagot has had all the advantages which a long life and the best
society give to the memoir writer. Add to these an excellent memory,
keen perceptions, and a decided gift of expression, and we have all
the materials for a most pleasant _pot-pourri_.'--_Times_.
'Every one who appreciates a volume of well-bred political and social
gossip ought to read Mrs. Bagot's "Links with the Past."'--_Standard_.
'Rich and suggestive as this entertaining book is, it is clear that
the author is not merely a keen observer of life and manners, but that
she has enjoyed opportunities of the social kind that do not fall to
many.'--_Westminster Gazette_.

MEMORIALS OF THE VERY REV. W.C. LAKE, D.D.,
DEAN OF DURHAM, 1869-1894.
Edited by his Widow, KATHARINE LAKE.
One volume, 8vo., with Photogravure Portrait, 16s.
At the time of his death in 1897, the late Dean of Durham was engaged
upon his Reminiscences, but they were unfortunately left in a very
fragmentary and incomplete condition. Mrs. Lake has, however, put the
MSS. in order, with the co-operation of Canon Rawlinson, of Canterbury,
and supplemented it with such additional materials as were in her
possession, including a selection from the Dean's full and varied
correspondence.
Dean Lake was a Fellow and Tutor of Balliol during the height of the
Oxford Movement, and was afterwards a member of the famous Royal
Commission on Education, which may be said to have laid the foundation
for all subsequent legislation on the subject. He was on intimate terms
with the leading men in the English Church during an eventful period of
its history, but, though a strong Churchman, he was a thorough man of
the world, of broad views and wide culture. Mrs. Lake has been permitted
to publish letters to her husband from his numerous friends, including
Arch-bishop Tait, Dean Church, Dean Stanley, Mr. Gladstone, Canon
Liddon, Dr. Pusey, Lord Halifax, and others--letters that not only add
considerably to our knowledge of those distinguished characters, but
contain many valuable comments upon large questions of permanent
interest.

LIVES OF HOLY MEN.
MONSIEUR VINCENT.
A SKETCH OF A CHRISTIAN SOCIAL REFORMER OF THE SEVENTEENTH CENTURY.
By JAMES ADDERLEY,
AUTHOR OF 'FRANCIS, THE LITTLE POOR MAN OF ASSISI,' 'STEPHEN REMARX,' ETC.
Small crown 8vo., elegantly bound, with devotional Portrait, 3s. 6d.
This little life of St. Vincent de Paul does not aim at supplanting
larger biographies, but it contains enough to make the reader feel that
to know nothing of St. Vincent would be a serious loss to anyone who
desires a knowledge of the History of the Church and her advance towards
the solution of social problems.
* * * * *
HUGH OF LINCOLN.
By CHARLES MARSON,
VICAR OF HAMBRIDGE, TAUNTON.
Small crown 8vo., elegantly bound, with Portrait, 3s. 6d.
This volume is uniform in design with the preceding, and will, it is
hoped, form part of a little series of the Lives of Holy Men, which may
be helpful to Churchmen of the present day. The portrait in the
frontispiece is based upon a statue surmounting a pinnacle of Lincoln
Cathedral, specially photographed for the purpose.

FRANCIS:
The Little Poor Man of Assisi.
A SHORT STORY OF THE FOUNDER OF THE BROTHERS MINOR.
By JAMES ADDERLEY.
Second Edition, with photogravure Portrait of St. Francis, crown
8vo., 3s. 6d.
'Mr. Adderley has written a pleasant, sympathetic, graphic account of
the most fascinating of mediæval saints. We can heartily recommend Mr.
Adderley's book. It is thoroughly up to modern knowledge, and contains
references to works as recent as M. Sabatier's publication of the
"Tractatus de Indulgentia S. Mariæ in Portiuncula." A useful abridged
translation of the Franciscan rule is appended.'--_Guardian_.
'Admirers of St. Francis will gladly welcome this little book. The story
of his life is told clearly and in beautiful language.'--_Ave
Maria_.

SEVEN ROMAN STATESMEN.
By C.W. OMAN,
DEPUTY CHICHELE PROFESSOR OF HISTORY IN THE UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD. AUTHOR
OF 'THE ART OF WAR,' 'A HISTORY OF ENGLAND,' ETC.
Crown 8vo., with Portraits, 6s.
This work contains a detailed study of some of the great Romans whose
fame is eternal. Cæsar, Pompey, Sulla and the Gracchi were the men who
made Roman History, and their characters and actions are of living
interest to-day. Professor Oman's volume is based upon a series of
lectures given in Oxford, thoroughly revised for publication, and he
has selected the portraits with great care.

IMPERIUM ET LIBERTAS.
By BERNARD HOLLAND.
One volume, octavo, 12s. 6d. net.
'The book is one which it will be the desire, we may perhaps say the
necessity, of every student of the higher politics of the Empire to read
carefully. The development of the Empire ... and the character and
ideals of the collective organization as a whole, as these stand before
the world at the beginning of the twentieth century, are discussed by
Mr. Holland in a vein of modest conviction, and withal of illuminating
criticism, supported by apt quotation and example, which is very
instructive.'--_Spectator_.
'Mr. Bernard Holland has written a good book upon a great subject. He
writes with sobriety and force, backed by wide reading and considerable
knowledge of affairs. His book ought to be widely read and seriously
considered.'--_Times_.
'A very remarkable book; eminently instructive. The newest political
thought is addressed to the beginnings and the desirability of a
complete transformation of the British Empire. They are not all dreamers
and faddists who commend the change and would hasten it. Of such is Mr.
Bernard Holland, a man whose studies, whose sagacity, whose freedom from
the limitations of partizanship and the heats of controversy, entitle
him to a respectful hearing whenever he speaks.'--_Pall Mall
Gazette_.

RIGHTS AND WRONGS OF THE TRANSVAAL WAR.
By E.T. COOK,
Recently Editor of the _Daily News_.
THIRD IMPRESSION. One volume, demy 8vo., 12s. 6d. net.
'We must congratulate Mr. Cook most warmly on his achievement. Whatever
else may be read about the diplomacy that preceded the war, his book
must certainly be read. It will immensely increase a reputation that
already stood very high. No recent book on any political question has
been so good, and we are inclined to think it marks out Mr. Cook as the
ablest political journalist of the day. The writing is of a masterly
lucidity.'--_Literature_.
'Mr. Cook has produced a handbook of the political history of the War,
the practical utility and instructive value of which it would be
difficult to exaggerate.'--_World_.

TROOPER 8,008 I.Y.
By the Hon. SIDNEY PEEL,
BARRISTER-AT-LAW.
With 16 Illustrations from Photographs, and a Map, demy 8vo., 7s. 6d.
SIXTH IMPRESSION.
'We congratulate Mr. Peel most heartily on his frank and manly book.
That it will obtain a very large number of readers we do not doubt, for
it is a fascinating record of service in perhaps the most interesting
body of troops that took part in the war. In his book we get war as seen
from the ranks, recorded not only by a singularly able and cultivated
man, but by one who had plenty of experience of men and cities, and one
who had a first-hand acquaintance of generals and politicians before he
went campaigning.'--_Spectator_.
'This book seems to us to be perhaps the best contribution to the
literature of the war that has yet been written. It is a plain soldierly
narrative of what the writer actually did and saw, set down in
unvarnished language, yet in English which it is a pleasure to read for
its straightforward fluency.'--_St. James's Gazette_.
'From first page to last it is a good book.'--_Pilot_.
'A most lively and amusing record.'--_Daily Express_.
'Written in a remarkably easy and interesting manner, leaving one with a
vivid impression of what campaigning under present-day conditions really
means.'--_Westminster Gazette_.

cookery. It takes nothing for granted, and gives sensible notes and
rules for every phase of culinary work. The chief part of the book is
occupied with recipes suitable for ordinary English households under

ESSEX HOUSE PRESS PUBLICATIONS.
MR. EDWARD ARNOLD has much pleasure in calling attention to the fact
that almost without exception these interesting books have all been
bought up and become out of print before publication, while one or two
that have found their way into the sale-rooms have commanded a high
premium.
These books are printed at Essex House, on the presses used by the late
Mr. William Morris at the Kelmscott Press, which were purchased by the
Guild of Handicraft. Members of Mr. Morris's staff are also retained at
the Essex House Press, and it is the hope of the Guild of Handicraft by
this means to continue in some measure the tradition of good printing
and fine workmanship which William Morris revived.
Subscribers to the complete series of Essex House Publications are given
priority for any new book issued, and the number of subscribers is
constantly increasing.
Among the volumes expected to be published during the coming season are
the following:
ERASMUS' Praise of Folly. SIR THOMAS CHALLONER'S Translation
(Elizabethan). With a set of illustrations, borders, frontispiece, and
initial by WILLIAM STRANG, and a cloth cover in motley by C.R. ASHBEE.
250 copies. £3 3s.
The Psalms of David. This book will be in the new type with a
fresh set of historiated 'bloomers' designed by C.R. ASHBEE. 250 copies.
American Sheaves and English Seed Corn. Essays and Addresses by
C.R. ASHBEE.
The Essex House Song Book will be issued in about 100 folio
sheets, three or four songs coming on to the sheet of four pages. The
sheets will be printed red and black in the new type, with wood-cut
embellishments, and uniform in size with the Essex House 'Shakespeare.'
Three hundred copies only will be issued, of which 100 are reserved in
the first instance for America. The sheets will be published in batches
of about ten sheets at a time, at a cost of 1s. a sheet, and over a
period of two or three years. Subscriptions can only be received for the
whole work, payable as the sheets are ready for delivery. Subscribers
to the regular series of Essex House Press Publications will not be
expected to subscribe if they do not wish to do so, but will be given
first refusal.
Intending subscribers and persons who desire to receive announcements
of the forthcoming publications are recommended to enter their names as
soon as possible.

KING EDWARD THE SEVENTH'S PRAYER-BOOK.
This will be a sumptuous edition of the Book of Common Prayer, which, by
gracious permission of His Majesty, will be entitled 'King Edward the
Seventh's Prayer-Book.'
The new Prayer-Book will be hand printed at the Essex House Press, and
whilst conforming to the Authorized Version will rank, as a piece of
typography, with the Great Prayer-Book of Edward VI. It is to be in new
type designed by Mr. C.R. Ashbee, with about one hundred and fifty
woodcuts, and is to be printed in red and black on Batchelor hand-made
paper. There will also probably be a special binding of green vellum
with a gold block design and clasps. The preparation of the work is
expected to occupy about eighteen months.
The Prayer-Book will be published by his Majesty's printers, Messrs.
Eyre and Spottiswoode, acting under the Royal Letters Patent, who will
superintend the work of the Essex House Press.
Exceptional circumstances connected with the Book of Common Prayer
render it essential that this work, in order to be of historic value,
shall be issued with the imprint of the King's printers; but Mr. EDWARD
ARNOLD has arranged to secure for subscribers to the Essex House Press
publications the first offer of copies, and orders should be sent in
before October 31, 1901, after which date such priority cannot be
guaranteed.
The edition will be strictly limited to a total of four hundred copies
for England and America, at a price of Twelve Guineas (£12 12s.) net,
and there will also be five copies on vellum at Forty Pounds (£40) net.

personal influence, and a social force of rare potency and
effect.'--_Times_.
'An exquisite appreciation.'--_Daily Chronicle_.

YALE BICENTENNIAL PUBLICATIONS.
DEDICATED TO THE GRADUATES OF YALE UNIVERSITY.
MR. EDWARD ARNOLD has pleasure in announcing the issue of an important
series of scientific works in connection with Messrs. Charles Scribner's
Sons, of New York.
With the approval of the President and Fellows of Yale University, the
series has been prepared by a number of the Professors and Instructors,
to be issued in connection with the Bicentennial Anniversary, as a
partial indication of the studies in which the University teachers are
engaged. The list of volumes includes some of a special and technical
nature, others of a more general character. Social Science, History,
Literature, Philology, Mathematics, Physical and Mechanical Science are
all represented, the object being to illustrate the special function of
the University in the discovery and orderly arrangement of knowledge.
Several of the volumes are now ready, and it is hoped that nearly all
will be published before the Bicentennial celebration in October.
