“This beautifully illustrated edition of Andersen’s exquisite stories is sure to be a favourite with all young people who become its fortunate possessors. The biographical sketch is admirably written.”—_Sheffield Independent._ “We recommend all boys and girls who have not read about the wonderful Shoes of Fortune, and the Ugly Duckling and the Snow Queen, to get this book as soon as possible.”—_Literary Churchman._ “The tales, of course, we need not criticise; but we may say that the illustrations are not unworthy of them. They show something of the same graceful fancy which guided Andersen’s pen. Of the singular personality of Andersen himself we get a really valuable sketch. Dr. Mackenzie estimates him justly, we think, but not unkindly.”—_The Spectator._ WITH PORTRAIT OF NATHAN MEYER DE ROTHSCHILD. Second edition, crown 8vo., cloth, bevelled boards, price 2s. 6d. =Fortunate Men: How they made Money= and Won Renown. A Curious Collection of Rich Men’s Mottoes and Great Men’s Watchwords; their Financial Tests and Secrets; their Favourite Sayings and Guiding Rules in Business, with Droll and Pithy Remarks on the Conduct of Life, mostly taken down in their own words. To which is added many New and Authentic Sayings of “Poor Richard,” with Sundry Pieces of Useful Advice to Persons Entering the World, and Practical Hints for those Desirous of Improving their Position in it. “A chronicle of rank, and fame, and gold.”—_Punch._ “The real value of its contents consists in its asserting the claims to respect of virtues, such as perseverance, method, and punctuality, which are often contemptuously treated, but which are invaluable, whether for making money or, which is much more important, for formation of character. With regard to the latter object, there is no question of substantial reward to the student, and we therefore wish the book success.”—_Glasgow Herald._ “There is encouragement for others in its anecdotes, and its advice is dictated by morality and common-sense. To carry out its maxims might not ensure the making of a fortune during the present times of depression, but would secure an honourable business reputation under any circumstances.”—_Christian World._ “He will be a dull and stupid boy indeed, who, whether fifty or fifteen years of age, does not learn something that will be valuable from ‘Fortunate Men.’”—_Manchester Weekly Post._ “There are passages among these selections which are worthy to be inscribed in brass in every place of business. Of worldly wisdom we have here huge nuggets, and in the mingled mass much of pure gold may be seen. Every young man may read this book with profit.”—_Sword and Trowel._ “_As in every book which Mr. Hogg has sent us, so in this; we have to praise the typography, the paper, and the strong but also ornamental binding._”—MANCHESTER WEEKLY POST. A HANDBOOK OF REFERENCE AND QUOTATION.
