Michael Faraday: Third Edition, with Portrait
Gladstone, J. H. (John Hall)
Faraday, Michael, 1791-1867
"_Full of truthful and charming historic pictures, is everywhere
vital with moral and religious principles, and is written
with a brightness of description, and with a dramatic force
in the representation of character, that have made, and will
always make, it one of the greatest favourites with reading
boys._"--NONCONFORMIST.
=Deane.=--MARJORY. By MILLY DEANE. Third Edition. With Frontispiece and
Vignette. Crown 8vo. 4_s._ 6_d._
_The TIMES of September 11th says it is_ "_A very touching story,
full of promise for the after career of the authoress. It is so
tenderly drawn, and so full of life and grace, that any attempt
to analyse or describe it falls sadly short of the original. We
will venture to say that few readers of any natural feeling or
sensibility will take up 'Marjory' without reading it through at a
sitting, and we hope we shall see more stories by the same hand._"
_The MORNING POST calls it_ "_A deliciously fresh and charming
little love story._"
=De Vere.=--THE INFANT BRIDAL, and other Poems. By AUBREY DE VERE.
Fcap. 8vo. 7_s._ 6_d._
"_Mr. De Vere has taken his place among the poets of the day. Pure
and tender feeling, and that polished restraint of style which is
called classical, are the charms of the volume._"--SPECTATOR.
=Doyle (Sir F. H.)=--LECTURES ON POETRY, delivered before the
University of Oxford in 1868. By Sir FRANCIS HASTINGS DOYLE, Professor
of Poetry in the University of Oxford. Crown 8vo. 3_s._ 6_d._
"_Full of thoughtful discrimination and fine insight: the lecture
on 'Provincial Poetry' seems to us singularly true, eloquent, and
instructive._"--SPECTATOR.
=Estelle Russell.=--By the Author of "The Private Life of Galileo." New
Edition. Crown 8vo. 6_s._
_Full of bright pictures of French life. The English family,
whose fortunes form the main drift of the story, reside mostly in
France, but there are also many English characters and scenes of
great interest. It is certainly the work of a fresh, vigorous, and
most interesting writer, with a dash of sarcastic humour which is
refreshing and not too bitter._ "_We can send our readers to it
with confidence._"--SPECTATOR.
=Evans.=--BROTHER FABIAN'S MANUSCRIPT, AND OTHER POEMS. By SEBASTIAN
EVANS. Fcap. 8vo. cloth. 6_s._
"_In this volume we have full assurance that he has 'the vision and
the faculty divine.'... Clever and full of kindly humour._"--GLOBE.
=Evans.=--THE CURSE OF IMMORTALITY. By A. EUBULE EVANS. Crown 8vo. 6_s._
