Goodrich's Man upon the Sea.
Man upon the Sea; or, A History of Maritime Adventure, Exploration, and Discovery, from the earliest ages to the present time: Comprising a detailed account of remarkable voyages, ancient as well as modern. By FRANK B. GOODRICH, author of the "Letters of Dick Tinto," "The Court of Napoleon," etc. With numerous illustrations, by Van Ingen & Snyder. One vol. 8vo. $3.00.
Ponce de Leon and the Fountain of Youth.
This popular work, which had reached its second edition a few days after publication, will always remain a favorite with the public. It is complete, covering the whole history of maritime adventure, and yet it gives lively details of the doings of celebrated voyagers, from the first navigator down to the celebrated voyagers who laid the Atlantic submarine telegraph cable. Mr. Goodrich's vivacity and agreeableness as a narrator are exhibited not less auspiciously here than in his celebrated "Court of Napoleon," which was recognized as one of the most delightful of court histories. The embellishments are very numerous, and strictly appropriate to the subject.—Home Gazette.
