Arthur Hughes (author of Tom Brown books)
TOM BROWN’S SCHOOL DAYS. 1480
By An Old Boy. New Edition. Beautifully Illustrated by Arthur Hughes and Sydney Prior Hall. 8vo, Paper, 50 cents.
Nothing need be said of the merits of this acknowledged on all hands to be one of the very best boy’s books ever written. “Tom Brown” does not reach the point of ideal excellence. He is not a faultless boy; but his boy-faults, by the way they are corrected, help him in getting on. The more of such reading can be furnished the better. There will never be too much of it.—Examiner and Chronicle.
Can be read a dozen times, and each time with tears and laughter as genuine and impulsive as at the first.—Rochester Democrat.
Finely printed, and contains excellent illustrations. “Tom Brown” is a book which will always be popular with boys, and it deserves to be.—World (N.Y.).
For healthy reading it is one book in a thousand.—Advance.
TOM BROWN AT OXFORD.
By the Author of “Tom Brown’s School Days.” New Edition. With Illustrations by Sydney Prior Hall. 8vo, Paper, 75 cents.
A new and very pretty edition. The illustrations are exceedingly good, the typography is clear, and the paper white and fine. There is no need to say any thing of the literary merits of the work, which has become a kind of classic, and which presents the grand old Tory University to the reader in all its glory and fascination.—Evening Post.
A book of which one never wearies.—Presbyterian.
Fairly entitled to the rank and dignity of an English classic. Plot, style, and truthfulness are of the soundest British character. Racy, idiomatic, mirror-like, always interesting, suggesting thought on the knottiest social and religious questions, now deeply moving by its unconscious pathos, and anon inspiring uproarious laughter, it is a work the world will not willingly let die.—Christian Advocate.
Both books, in One Volume, 8vo, Cloth, $150.
