Westward With Columbus. By Gordon Stables, m.d., c.m. With 8 page Illustrations by Alfred Pearse. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, 5s.

"This is quite one of the best books for boys that we have seen this autumn. It is the duty of every British and American lad to know the story of Christopher Columbus."—School Guardian.

"Our author treats his subject in a dignified, historical fashion which well becomes it, and we must place Westward with Columbus among those books that all boys ought to read."—The Spectator.

"Will be greatly in request as a school prize. The tone is healthy, the characters are lifelike, and the narrative of the great discoverer's adventures through his chequered career is replete with incidents and sensational episodes."—Church Review.

'Twixt School and College: A Tale of Self-reliance. By Gordon Stables, c.m., m.d., r.n. With 8 page Illustrations by V. Parkinson. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, 5s.

"One of the best of a prolific writer's books for boys, being full of practical instructions as to keeping pets, from white mice upwards, and inculcates in a way which a little recalls Miss Edgeworth's 'Frank' the virtue of self-reliance, though the local colouring of the home of the Aberdeenshire boy is a good deal more picturesque."—AthenÆum.
