MAXIMS OF LIFE SERIES

A set of miniature volumes, exquisitely produced, designed to hold the essence of the wisdom of some of the world's keenest intelligences. The Napoleon volume, for instance, thus contains the essential creed of the man who towered above his time like a Colossus. That of Madame de SÉvignÉ, again, holds the attar of an intellect that dazzled the most brilliant court of France. In the La Rochefoucauld is the essence of the worldly wisdom of one of the cleverest judges of men and things. And the George Sand preserves the private philosophy which a passionate woman slowly distilled as she made her stormy pilgrimage through life. Each of these volumes, which contain illustrations in line and colour, is a slender casket of jewels. In decorative wrapper, 6d. net. Bound in Velvet Persian Yapp, 1/- net; also in Japon Vellum, 1/- net. 120 pp.
