*Dicey (Edward).*--THE MORNING LAND. By EDWARD DICEY. Two vols. crown
8vo. 16_s._
“_An invitation to be present at the opening of the Suez Canal was the
immediate cause of my journey. But I made it my object also to see as
much of the Morning Land, of whose marvels the canal across the Isthmus
is only the least and latest, as time and opportunity would permit.
The result of my observations was communicated to the journal I then
represented, in a series of letters, which I now give to the public in
a collected form._”--Extract from AUTHOR’S PREFACE.
*Dilke.*--GREATER BRITAIN. A Record of Travel in English-speaking
Countries during 1866–7. (America, Australia, India.) By Sir CHARLES
WENTWORTH DILKE, M.P. Fifth and Cheap Edition. Crown 8vo. 6_s._
“_Mr. Dilke has written a book which is probably as well worth reading
as any book of the same aims and character that ever was written. Its
merits are that it is written in a lively and agreeable style, that it
implies a great deal of physical pluck, that no page of it fails to
show an acute and highly intelligent observer, that it stimulates the
imagination as well as the judgment of the reader, and that it is on
perhaps the most interesting subject that can attract an Englishman who
cares about his country._”
