Three volumes, 8vo, extra cloth, with 100 full-page engravings in each.
| Price per volume | $3.50 |
The work includes three divisions, each in one volume complete in itself.
- Famous Travels and Travellers.
- The Great Navigators.
- The Explorers of the Nineteenth Century.
Each volume in the series is very fully illustrated with full-page engravings by French artists of note; and the volume of "FAMOUS TRAVELS" is made still more interesting by many fac-similes from the original prints in old voyages, atlases, etc.
"Even if truth were not stranger than fiction, to the healthful mind it ought to be far more fascinating. Such works as this are not only entertaining and informing, but their whole atmosphere is bracing. They are as much better than sentimental heart histories or imaginary personal experiences as a day in the open air is better than a day in a close and crowded apartment."—N. Y. Observer.
"The book may very well be a favorite at the holiday time, but it has permanent worth and permanent interest also, which will give it a place in well-selected libraries."—N. Y. Evening Post.
