McCOAN (J. CARLILE)—

OUR NEW PROTECTORATE. Turkey in Asia: Its Geography, Races, Resources, and Government. With a Map, showing the Existing and Projected Public Works. 2 vols. large crown 8vo, 24s.

“If a good book was to be made about Asiatic Turkey, it is difficult to see how it could have been made with greater success than has attended the efforts of Mr. McCoan. He has told us all that we could wish to know; he has put his information into a compact and readable shape; and he has supplied just as much detail as gives body to his work without overloading it. He has, too, a personal knowledge of many parts of the vast district he describes; and has been for years familiar with the Turks, their ways and work.”—Saturday Review.

MOLESWORTH (W. NASSAU)—

HISTORY OF ENGLAND FROM THE YEAR 1830 TO THE RESIGNATION OF THE GLADSTONE MINISTRY.

A Cheap Edition, carefully revised, and carried up to March, 1874. 3 vols. crown 8vo, 18s.

A School Edition. Post 8vo, 7s. 6d.

“It is a great misfortune that the history of our country that is nearest our own times young men are least acquainted with. It is not written in histories that were read at school, and they are not old enough, as I am old enough, to remember almost every political fact since the great Reform Bill of 1832. I wish young men would read some history of this period. A neighbour and a friend of mine, a most intelligent and accomplished clergyman—Mr. Molesworth—has published a work, being a political history of England from the year 1830—that is, from the first Reform Bill—until within the last two or three years; a book honestly written, in which facts are plainly—and I believe truly—stated, and a work which would give great information to all the young men of the country, if they could be prevailed upon to read it.”—From the Right Hon. John Bright’s Speech at Birmingham.
