Harper's Catalogue of Travel-Books is one of the literary curiosities of the day, exhibiting at a glance the contributions of modern travel to geographical and other knowledge. Commencing with South Africa, and marking on a map the tracks of these travelers, the reader will be astonished to see how thoroughly they cover the length and breadth of Africa. Livingstone, Ellis, Burton, Du Chaillu, Reade, Andersson, Speke, Davis, Wilson, and others, have within a few years explored Africa pretty thoroughly; Egypt and the Holy Land have been repeatedly described in late times; Layard had given us the revelations of the Euphrates and the Tigris valleys; Atkinson had written his admirable accounts of Siberia, illustrated by his own most brilliant pencil; Huc and others described China; and now a hitherto almost unknown portion of the very heart of Asia is opened to us by the delightful book of Vámbéry.—N. Y. Journal of Commerce.
