‘The reader is not only charmed by the pleasant experiences and the interesting discussions of the pilgrims, but at the same time he acquires a great deal of information which would otherwise have to be sought in a combination of cyclopædia, “Speaker’s Commentary,” and guide-book.’—Tribune.
POLITICAL CARICATURES, 1906.
By Sir F. CARRUTHERS GOULD.
Super royal 4to. 6s. net.
The change of Government, with the consequent variety of political topics, very greatly enhances the attraction of this new volume of cartoons by ‘Sir F. C.
