A NEW AND CHEAPER EDITION

POMPEII

ITS LIFE AND ART

By AUGUST MAU, German Archæological Institute in Rome. Translated into English by Francis W. Kelsey, University of Michigan. Profusely illustrated from photographs, etc. Cloth, Gilt Top, Crown 8vo, $2.50 net.

F. Marion Crawford says of this work: "Professor Mau has succeeded beyond all those who have preceded him on the same ground. He reconstructs the ruins so that one believes in them, and sees that they must have been as he describes them, and the excellent drawings of these reconstructions stimulate the reader's belief. He restores the decorations next, and furnishes the vacant dwellings in a way that seems natural, and even comfortable; and, lastly, he populates the city he has so skilfully rebuilt, not with the dull lay figures in togas or tunics so dear to scientific history, but with human beings, alive and moving."
