MR. PUNCH'S PRIZE NOVELS.
By R. C. LEHMANN
With 24 Illustrations by EDWARD REED.
"Some things here reprinted are nearly of the best of their
kind. We should not like to take the authors' opinions, for
your author almost always laughs on the wrong side of his mouth
at caricatures of his work. But if the authors do not like it,
their readers will; and even of the authors themselves we may
trust that some will see the joke."--_Manchester Guardian._

"HANDLEY CROSS" SERIES OF SPORTING NOVELS.
This inimitable series of volumes is absolutely unique, there being
nothing approaching to them in all the wide range of modern or ancient
literature. Written by Mr. Surtees, a well-known country gentleman, who
was passionately devoted to the healthy sport of fox-hunting, and gifted
with a keen spirit of manly humour of a Rabelaisian tinge, they abound
with incidents redolent of mirth and jollity. The artist, Mr. Leech, was
himself also an enthusiast in the sport, and has reflected in his
illustrations, with instinctive appreciation, the rollicking abandon of
the author's stories.
_These volumes can be had separately as under:--_
HANDLEY CROSS; or, Mr. Jorrock's
Hunt. Many Sketches on Wood,
and 17 Steel Engravings. Price 16_s._
ASK MAMMA; or, The Richest
Commoner In England. Many

Engravings. Price 14_s._
