No. V. CANON PIETRO CASOLA'S PILGRIMAGE TO JERUSALEM IN THE YEAR 1494. By M. M. NEWETT, B.A., formerly Jones Fellow. Demy 8vo, pp. 427. 7s. 6d. net. (Publication No. 26, 1907.) "Tra mezzo ai tanti libri esteri di semplici divulgazione su fatti e figure della storia italiana, questo emerge piacevalmente e si legge volontieri. E diverso di carattere e di trattazione. Esume ... dalla polvere degli archivi e delle biblioteche qualche cosa che ha un valore fresco ed interessante, un valore storico e un valore umano."--A.A.B. in the _Archivio Storico Italiano_. "L'introduction se termine par toute une dissertation du plus grand intérêt, documentée à l'aide des archives vénitiennes, sur le caractère commercial des pèlerinages, dont les armateurs de Venise assumèrent, jusqu'au XVIIe siècle l'entreprise."--J.B. in the _Revue de Synthèse historique_. "Casola's narrative richly deserved the honours of print and translation. The book is a credit to its editor and to the historical school of Manchester University."--_Morning Leader_. "His narrative is at once simple and dignified in style, convincing and interesting in its pictures of the conditions governing travel by sea and land four centuries ago."--_Daily Telegraph_. "The book is like a gallery of mediæval paintings, full of movement and colouring, instinct with the vitality of the time."--_Birmingham Post_. "Miss Newett's introduction is a contribution of considerable value to the history of European commerce."--_Spectator_. "One of the most comprehensive of the itineraries is that now translated, an important feature of it being its full description of the city of Venice."--_The Times_. "One of the most delightful narratives that record the impressions of a pious pilgrim."--_Westminster Gazette_. "The work which Miss Margaret Newett has probably saved from oblivion is as intrinsically interesting as it should prove instructive to the student of history."--_Daily News_. "Miss Newett's introduction is an admirable bit of work. She has studied carefully what the archives of Venice have to say about pilgrim ships and shipping laws, and her pages are a mine of information on such subjects."--Dr. Thomas Lindsay in the _Scottish Historical Review_. "This is altogether an exceedingly well-edited book and a distinct credit to the History School of Manchester University."--_Glasgow Herald_. "This is a deeply interesting record, not merely of a Syrian pilgrimage, but of Mediterranean life and of the experiences of an intelligent Italian gentleman at the close of the Middle Ages--two years after the discovery of America. It would not be easy to find a more graphic picture, in old days, of a voyage from Venice to the Levant."--_American Historical Review_. "This book breaks new ground and does so in a scholarly and attractive fashion."--_The Standard_.
