BOOKS AND READING.

By Noah Porter, LL. D., President of Yale College. With an appendix giving valuable directions for courses of reading, prepared by James M. Hubbard, late of the Boston Public Library. 1 vol., crown 8vo, $2.

“President Noah Porter’s ‘Books and Reading’ is by far the most practical and satisfactory treatise on the subject that has been published. It not only answers the questions ‘What books shall I read?’ and ‘How shall I read them?’ but it supplies a large and well-arranged catalogue under appropriate heads, sufficient for a large family or a small public library.”—Boston Zion’s Herald.
