TREASURE ISLAND. A Story of Pirates and the Spanish Main. By Robert Louis Stevenson. With illustrations by F.T. Merrill. 12mo. Cloth. Price,$1.25

"At a time when the books of Mayne Reid, Ballantyne and Kingston are taking their places on the shelves to which well-thumbed volumes are relegated, it will be with especial delight that boy readers welcome a new writer in the literature of adventure. In 'Treasure Island,' Robert Louis Stevenson takes a new departure, and writes one of the jolliest, most readable, wide-awake tales of sea life that have set the blood tingling in the veins of the boys of at least the present generation. It is decidedly of the exciting order of stories, yet not of the unhealthily sensational. It details the stirring adventures of an English crew in their search for the immense treasure secreted by a pirate captain, and it certainly has not a dull page in it. Yet the author has contrived to keep the sympathy on the side of virtue and honesty, and throw upon the pirates that odium and detestation which their nefarious courses deserve; and the book is one heartily to be commended to any sturdy, wholesome lad who is fond of the smell of the brine and the tang of sailor speech in his reading."—Boston Courier.

Mr. Fenn visited Stoke Poges, the locality of the poem, and many of the illustrations are from sketches taken by him on the spot, and all of them were made expressly for this edition.

An interesting feature of the Harry Fenn edition is the reproduction of three stanzas printed with the earlier editions, but subsequently dropped by the author.

"The 'Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard,' by Thomas Gray, which has long held the proud distinction of being 'the most finished poem in the English tongue,' is just issued by Roberts Brothers, Boston, in an exquisitely illustrated volume, which must hold a very high place among the handsome gift books of the season. The illustrations were all drawn by Harry Fenn, especially for this edition, many of them from sketches made by the artist at Stoke Poges, the scene of the poem. The frontispiece, an exquisite sketch of vines and flowers clustering over and about an old gravestone, presents a 'rejected verse,' reprinted from the earlier editions—a verse for the rejection of which one scarcely sees any sufficient reason, finding it as full of tenderly pathetic music as any part of the poem—and in an appendix the same verse reappears, with two others, together with some note of the places they were originally intended to fill and the author's reasons for their omission. The illustrations are all designed with as truly poetic a spirit as the poem itself breathes, and all are presented in the very highest style of the engraver's art. To say that a book is a 'picture book' is usually to imply something rather derogatory to its character for value in other respects. But not so in this case. Here the most delicate and appreciative art is used to interpret to the eye the exquisite poetry of the text. However warmly one may have supposed himself to admire the poem, he can hardly rise from thoughtfully looking over this edition of the 'Elegy' without some consciously new and fresh appreciation of the beauty of the lines, so strikingly and fitly has their lofty and tender thought been interpreted to the eye. In all, too, that pertains to the work of the book-maker—in paper, typography, binding, etc.—the little volume is in thorough keeping with the art of the poet and the illustrator."—Chicago Times.
