Pott 8vo, 4s. net VOLUMES NOW READY:—
METHUEN & CO. LTD 36 ESSEX STREET LONDON W.C.2 THE LITTLE GUIDESThe main features of these books are (1) a handy and charming form, (2) numerous illustrations from photographs and by well-known artists, (3) good plans and maps, (4) an adequate but compact presentation of everything that is interesting in the natural features, history, archÆology, and architecture of the town or district treated. In those volumes which treat of counties, there is first a general description of the country—its situation, physical features, flora and fauna, climate, inhabitants, industries, history and archÆology. Then follows an account of the chief towns and places of interest in alphabetical order. The books are not guides in the ordinary sense of the word. They do not give the usual routes for expeditions, information about hotels, etc., but they contain information which may be sufficient for the ordinary tourist of literary tastes, and they form not only practical handbooks, but delightful gift books.
