Under the above title the publishers have arranged to issue, for
School Libraries and the Home Circle, a selection of the best and most
interesting books in the English language. The Library includes lives
of heroes, ancient and modern, records of travel and adventure by sea
and land, fiction of the highest class, historical romances, books of
natural history, and tales of domestic life.
The greatest care has been devoted to the get-up of the Library.
The volumes are clearly printed on good paper, and the binding
made specially durable, to withstand the wear and tear to which
well-circulated books are necessarily subjected.
_In crown 8vo volumes. Strongly bound in imperial cloth. Price 1s. 4d.

with juvenile literature of recent years.... A glance at the list
proves that the editing is in the hands of some one who understands the
likings of healthy boys and girls.... One of the healthiest juvenile
libraries in existence."--=Bookman.=
