_The Speaker._--"There is a promising sound about the title of
Mr. Heinemann's new series, 'The Great Educators.' It should help
to allay the hunger and thirst for knowledge and culture of the
vast multitude of young men and maidens which our educational
system turns out yearly, provided at least with an appetite for
instruction."

In One Volume, 4to, Illustrated.
In this narrative, which is reprinted from the pages of _Black
and White_, an attempt is made to forecast the course of events
preliminary and incidental to the Great War which, in the opinion
of military and political experts, will probably occur in the
immediate future.
The writers, who are well-known authorities on international
politics and strategy, have striven to derive the conflict from
its most likely source, to conceive the most probable campaigns
and acts of policy, and generally to give to their work the
verisimilitude and actuality of real warfare. The work has been
profusely illustrated from sketches by Mr. Frederic Villiers, the
well-known war artist. [_Nearly ready._
