"We are glad to see a popular edition of a book, which, however
it may be regarded must be pronounced unique. The writer, the
adventures, and the style are all extraordinary--the last not the
least of the three. It is flowing and natural--a far better style
than is written by the majority of English travellers."--_St.
James's Gazette._

BOYS' EDITION.
=ARMINIUS VAMBÉRY=: His Life and Adventures. Written by Himself. With
Introductory Chapter dedicated to the Boys of England. Portrait and
Seventeen Illustrations. Crown 8vo. 5s.
This new edition was prepared by M. Vambéry at the suggestion of
several of his English friends and critics during his late visit
to this country, that the story of his life was one well adapted
to form the subject of a book for boys. He has carefully revised
it throughout, eliminating all political and other matter that
would possess but little interest for boys. A new Introductory
Chapter is added, giving a more extensive insight into his boy
life than the previous volume, and showing how even the humblest,
poorest, and most delicate lad can, with perseverance and
industry, rise to prosperity and renown. It possesses several
additional Illustrations and a new Portrait of the Author.

talent of exposition; she understands, and her readers have no
choice but to understand with her. To students, not only of Greek
art, but of art in general, her book is really
indispensable."--_Magazine of Art._
