THE PRINCESS MATHILDE BONAPARTE
By Philip W. Sergeant, Author of "The Last Empress of the French," etc.
_Demy 8vo, cloth gilt, fully illustrated, 16/- net._
Princess Mathilde Bonaparte, the niece of the great Emperor, died
only ten years ago. She was the first serious passion of her cousin,
the Emperor Napoleon III, and she might have been, if she had wished,
Empress of the French. Instead, she preferred to rule for half a
century over a salon in Paris, where, although not without fault, she
was known as "the good princess."
FROM JUNGLE TO ZOO
By Ellen Velvin, F.Z.S., Author of "Behind the Scenes with Wild
Animals," etc.
_Large crown 8vo, cloth gilt, with many remarkable photographs, 6/-
net_.
A fascinating record of the many adventures to which wild animals and
their keepers are subject from the time the animals are captured until
their final lodgment in Zoo or menagerie. The author has studied wild
animals for sixteen years, and writes from personal knowledge. The
book is full of exciting stories and good descriptions of the methods
of capture, transportation and caging of savage animals, together with
accounts of their tricks, training, and escapes from captivity.
THE ADMIRABLE PAINTER: A study of Leonardo da Vinci
By A.J. Anderson, Author of "The Romance of Fra Filippo Lippi," "His
Magnificence," etc.
_Demy 8vo, cloth gilt, fully illustrated, 10/6 net._
In this book we find Leonardo da Vinci to have been no absorbed,
religious painter, but a man closely allied to every movement of the
brilliant age in which he lived. Leonardo jotted down his thoughts in
his notebooks and elaborated them with his brush, in the modelling of
clay, or in the planning of canals, earthworks and flying-machines.
These notebooks form the groundwork of Mr. Anderson's fascinating
study, which gives us a better understanding of Leonardo, the man, as
well as the painter, than was possible before.
