While no attempt is made in "Stories of the Sea" to paint the sailor's life in glowing colours, or invest it with a glamour of romance, the narratives selected are full of such thrilling incidents of peril, suffering, and shipwreck, as are always deeply interesting to the young reader. "Next to an original sea-tale of sustained interest come well-sketched collections of maritime disaster and suffering which awaken the sympathies by the realism of fact. 'Stories of the Sea,' are a very good specimen of the kind, and some of the chapters which are pleasantly written are altogether fresh to us."--_The Times._ "Many boys will appreciate this book, as the adventures of impossible boy pirates are not equal in interest to much of the simple truth here told."--_Athenæum._ ADVENTURES IN FIELD, FLOOD, & FOREST: Stories of Danger and Daring. With 4 full-page Illustrations by FRANK FELLER. Crown 8vo, cloth extra, 2_s._ 6_d._ Incidents of daring, hardship, and danger have ever had, and doubtless always will have a powerful fascination for the youthful mind, and these narratives of real personal experience in "Field, Flood, and Forest," while in no sense fictitious, will be found quite as exciting and more truly interesting than the most cunningly devised fables. "One of the series of books for young people which Messrs. Blackie excel in producing. The editor has beyond all question succeeded admirably. The present book cannot fail to be read with interest and advantage."--_Academy._ "All admirably told. It will be counted one of the best of the story-books that Christmas produces."--_Scotsman._ BY THOMAS ARCHER. LITTLE TOTTIE, And Two Other Stories. By THOMAS ARCHER. With 3 full-page Illustrations by J. J. PROCTOR. Crown 8vo, cloth extra, 2_s._ A thrilling-little drama of real life, of child life, of the life of a poor neighbourhood with sordid surroundings, and perhaps fuller of suggestion than many more pretentious tales. It stirs the emotions by representing actual scenes and possible people, with the peculiarities and habits that belong to them and make them easily recognized. MISS GRANTLEY'S GIRLS, And the Stories She Told Them. By THOMAS ARCHER. With 2 Illustrations by GORDON BROWNE. Cr. 8vo, cloth ex., 1_s._ 6_d._ The stories that Miss Grantley tells to her girls, during pleasant evenings after school, are such as are likely to prove attractive to the girls in other schools. They are small romances of real life with a good deal of genuine pathos and exciting incident in them, and are eminently suited for family reading or for tales to tell out of school as Miss Grantley told them. BY ROSA MULHOLLAND. HETTY GRAY; Or Nobody's Bairn. By ROSA MULHOLLAND. With 4 full-page Illustrations in black and tint. Cr. 8vo, cloth extra, 2_s._ 6_d._
