"They contain just the kind and amount of information required....
It is not easy to understand how works like these, written by men of
science in the various departments, can be made a commercial success.
Certainly nothing but the enormous circulation which they well deserve
can render them so."--_Knowledge._
"We have seen nothing better than this series. It is cheap, concise,
and practical."--_Saturday Review._
"We are glad to call attention to this excellent series of handbooks,
which deserve to be widely known.... We are glad to see the staff of
the British Museum thus coming forward to make popular the stores of
learning which they have.... The illustrations are uniformly good--far
better than in many expensive books."--_Academy._
