Lord Salisbury. The Record Premiership of Modern Times. By Arthur Mee. Illustrated, 2s. 6d.

The Western Morning News: "This is an admirable work. It is a soul-stirring narrative—one that cannot be read without the quickening of the pulse and glow of pride at the thought that in the British nation, whenever a man has been wanted, that man has always been at hand. The life story of General Macdonald is well told, and the book being a marvel of cheapness, should command an extensive circle of readers."
