BEING Studies Among the Bookstalls of the Quays. By OCTAVE UZANNE. WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY AUGUSTINE BIRRELL, AUTHOR OF 'OBITER DICTA,' 'RES JUDICATAE,' ETC. _AND 144 CHARACTERISTIC ILLUSTRATIONS INTERSPERSED IN THE TEXT_. [Illustration] EVERY bibliophile who by chance finds himself in Paris, whether on urgent affairs or on pleasure intent, invariably manages to visit that richest of hunting-grounds, the book-lined quays, where, perhaps, more unexpected treasures have been picked up than in any other city of Europe. It is of this happy hunting-ground and those who haunt it--the book-hunters and the bookstall-keepers; the books they buy and the books they sell; whence they come and whither they go; the finds, the losses, the disappointments, and red-letter days--that M. Uzanne writes in this attractive volume, in that felicitous and suggestive manner which has made him so well known in present-day literature. Opinions of the Press on 'The Book-Hunter in Paris.' 'A very interesting book. Mr. Birrell's introduction is a pleasant and useful explanation of the volume, which is presented in a form fully deserving of its literary merits.'--_Times._ 'M. Uzanne's chapters are full of curious information, which will have special attraction for those English book-hunters to whom Paris is unknown. The style is agreeably anecdotic, and the numerous woodcuts are quaint and graphic.'--_Globe._ 'With real regret we lay down so charmingly written a volume, and it is with no small satisfaction that we note the publisher's announcement that a companion volume on "The Book-Hunter in London" will shortly be issued.'--_St. James's Budget._ 'M. Uzanne's book is delightful, with never a heavy touch, but crammed with quaint traditions, humorous characteristics, charming gossip.'--_Graphic._ 'M. Uzanne sets forth with a good deal of pathos, happily leavened with humour, the history, past and present, of the stall-keepers and the quays of the Seine, in whose trays many a notable _trouvaille_ has been made in other times.'--_Pall Mall Gazette._ 'The interest of the book is heightened by the characteristic vignettes which are interwoven with the text on almost every other page.'--_The Standard._
