Edited by the Rev. WILLIAM LINDSAY ALEXANDER, D.D., with the assistance of numerous contributors.

Illustrated by Numerous Engravings on Wood and Steel.

In undertaking the New Edition of this work, it was the intention of the Publishers to complete it in two volumes, but the additions have been so extensive as to render a third volume necessary.

Although this change will occasion great extra expense to the Publishers, there will be no additional charge to Subscribers, who will receive the complete book at £3, the price to which the Publishers pledged themselves in their prospectus.
