WALKS ABOUT JERUSALEM AND ITS ENVIRONS.
Illustrated by Twenty-four Engravings on Steel, Two Maps, and many superior Woodcuts.
"We have at length, in this attractive volume, the desideratum of a complete picturesque guide to the topography of Jerusalem."
—Patriot.

—Ch. of England Mag.

—Evangelical Magazine.
FOOTSTEPS OF OUR LORD AND HIS APOSTLES
IN SYRIA, GREECE, AND ITALY.
A Succession of Visits to the Scenes of New Testament Narrative. With Twenty-three Steel Engravings, and several Woodcuts.
"This is one of the happiest of the many happy Christmas ventures that the publishers have put forth. It is got up in excellent taste, and written in a pleasing and attractive style."
—Church and State Gazette.
"If beauty of design and execution, combined with elegance of narrative and trustworthy description, can be any recommendation to a book, it is sufficient to say that this excellent volume possesses every one of these features, and establishes its own character without the need of any further praise."
—Bell's Messenger.
THE PILGRIM FATHERS;
OR, THE FOUNDERS OF NEW ENGLAND IN THE REIGN OF JAMES THE FIRST.
With Twenty-eight Illustrations on Steel, and numerous Woodcuts.
"This is a good thing well done; a book that ought to be a household treasure in the family of the more than fifty millions of Englishmen and Americans, who are, if right-minded men, most deeply interested in the history it details. The story of the plantation of British America is, with the sole exception of the Sacred Records, the most important narrative in the annals of the world. No discovery of new lands like that of Columbus—no discovery in science, or in arts, approaches it in the magnitude of its glorious results."
—Standard.
"We can commend Mr. Bartlett's book as handsomely issued, carefully got together, and full of interesting reading. The illustrations are sufficiently varied—alternating between the Fens of Lincolnshire, the flats of Holland, and the scenery of Plymouth Sound."
—Athenæum.
PICTURES FROM SICILY.
Illustrated with Twenty-three Engravings on Steel, and several Woodcuts.
"As a work of reference it is of the highest utility; as an ornamental book it is unsurpassed; and as a guide to the traveller it has no equal in the English language."
—Observer.
"This is a very handsome and pleasing pictorial hand-book of the beauties of Sicily. The illustrations do honour alike to the artist, engraver, and publishers—and the style is, generally speaking, graphic and faithful ... with an interest beyond its pictorial claims."
—Athenæum.
FORTY DAYS IN THE DESERT;
ON THE TRACK OF THE ISRAELITES;
OR, A JOURNEY FROM CAIRO BY WADY FEIRAN TO MOUNT SINAI AND PETRA.
Illustrated with Twenty-seven Engravings on Steel, a Map, and numerous Woodcuts.
"Mr. Bartlett has made a book, pleasant in letter-press, as well as attractive in its illustrations—delicately finished line engravings of subjects particularly well chosen."
—Athenæum.
"A very handsome volume, copiously and cleverly illustrated in the vignette style; an elegant table-book, or most acceptable present."
—Atlas.
"Entertainingly written, and crowded with steel engravings of a superior character, which combine to make it a very handsome volume."
—Critic.
THE NILE BOAT;
OR, GLIMPSES OF THE LAND OF EGYPT.
Illustrated by Thirty-five Steel Engravings, Maps, and numerous Woodcuts.
"There is an actuality about the descriptions, and a beauty about the illustrations, that render this glimpse of Egypt peculiarly charming. The sketches and descriptive maps render the views witnessed in the 'Nile Boat' beautiful realities."
—The Sun.
GLEANINGS ON THE OVERLAND ROUTE.
Illustrated by Twenty-eight Steel Plates and Maps, and Twenty-three Woodcuts.
"The reader will find abundance of interesting and amusing information in the volume. As a work of art, it possesses very considerable merit."

"An individual of able research and active observation conveys to us his impressions in language terse, concise, and never tedious; we listen with pleasure to his tale. Well executed pictorial illustrations considerably enhance the merits of this pleasing work."
—Tait's Magazine.
JERUSALEM REVISITED.
With Twenty-two Steel Engravings and Woodcuts.
"A beautiful monument for a lover of Art."
—Athenæum.
"An interesting book to look through, and a useful book to read,"
—Leader.
"Mr. Bartlett was a remarkably clever and faithful sketcher, and had an unusual power of expressing space and size in the limits of a small vignette."
—Guardian.
