MURRAY’S NEW ILLUSTRATED BIBLE DICTIONARY. Edited by the Rev. William C. Piercy, Chaplain at the Whitelands Training College, Chelsea. With Illustrations, Plans, and Coloured Maps. Medium 8vo. 21s. net.
“This worthy volume is a compilation of most interesting and informing material. It is one that any person with serious claims to be called a reader might take up at odd moments and find therein an endless source of pleasure and profit. To the student of theology and Biblical lore it is a desideratum revealed, and no candidate for, or qualified member of, the Christian ministry should pursue his course a day longer without it.... So it is a good book, because you can take its word for granted; because you can tuck it under your arm if you are going out to some debate or lecture; because you can get solid food and even diversion for the mind by its pages—and good books, of such a kind, are not too plentiful.”—Daily Chronicle.
