Letters from India. By Lady Wilson. Demy 8vo, 7s. 6d. net.

"It is the most fascinating book written about India since Miss Eden published her famous letters, 'Up Country,' and proved to an incredulous world that India is not hopelessly dull. With the light touch of genius Lady Wilson paints the Indian scenes; she has also the divine gift of sympathy which is not confined to her own race. Humour and pathos lend the same charm to the letters as they do to the letters of Cowper. She has revealed the prose poetry and the tragedy of Anglo-Indian life."—G. W. Forrest, C.I.E., Author of 'The History of the Indian Mutiny.'

"What's the matter?" I asked; "what does the man want?"

The ticket-collector gave that pleased and deprecating smirk with which a native called upon to exercise his English usually opens.

"He want your paper of the luggage," said he.

"Is that all," I said; "what does he want it for?"

"He want it," said the Babu, "because he say that your are so iggnorant that perhaps you lose the paper of the luggage. He say you give it to him. He not lose it."

The Life and Times of Akhnaton, Pharaoh of Egypt. The Greatest of the Pharaohs. By Arthur E. P. Weigall, Author of 'Travels in the Upper Egyptian Deserts.' Demy 8vo, 10s. 6d. net With Illustrations.

"Mr Weigall has written a remarkable book. Seldom does a reviewer, having read a volume through, at once re-read it because of the pleasure it has given. Yet such was the fact on this occasion. The story of Akhnaton is strengthening and beautiful: it would perhaps be pitiful—it is in some respects so human—if it were not remembered that since it happened ages have drifted by; and, with the intervention of centuries, abolition of sorrow comes. Nevertheless, the spirit of its message lingers; and men will be wise to remember the facts and the moral of the efforts Akhnaton made."—The Daily Chronicle.
