THE CAUSE OF AN ICE AGE. By Sir Robert Ball, LL. D., F. R. S., Royal Astronomer of Ireland; author of “Star Land,” “The Story of the Sun,” etc.

“Sir Robert Ball’s book is, as a matter of course, admirably written. Though but a small one, it is a most important contribution to geology.”—London Saturday Review.

“A fascinating subject, cleverly related and almost colloquially discussed.”—Philadelphia Public Ledger.

THE HORSE; A Study in Natural History. By William H. Flower, C. B., Director in the British Natural History Museum. With 27 Illustrations.

“The author admits that there are 3,800 separate treatises on the horse already published, but he thinks that he can add something to the amount of useful information now before the public, and that something not heretofore written will be found in this book. The volume gives a large amount of information, both scientific and practical, on the noble animal of which it treats.”—New York Commercial Advertiser.
