“The work is one that deserves to be studied by all students of ancient history, and in particular by ministers of the gospel, whose office requires them to interpret the Scriptures, and who ought not to be ignorant of the latest and most interesting contribution of science to the elucidation of the sacred volume.”—New York Tribune.

With a Prefatory Essay, by the Rev. W. H. Freemantle, Canon of Canterbury. 1 vol. 12mo, $1.
“There is the genuine ring of Christian manliness in Canon Freemantle’s ‘Gospel of the Secular Life.’ ...

OLD TESTAMENT REVISION.
A Handbook for English Readers. By Alexander Roberts, D.D., author of “Companion to the Revised Version of the English New Testament.” 1 vol. 12mo, $1.

ON THE DESERT.
With a Brief Review of Recent Events in Egypt. By Rev. Henry M. Field, D.D., author of “From the Lakes of Killarney to the Golden Horn,” and “From Egypt to Japan.” 1 vol. crown 8vo, with a map, $2.
“It ought to be in every Sunday-school library and on every home table. The minister’s library need not disdain it. We hope Dr. Field will live long, travel much, never fail to make abundant notes and give them, with subsequent reflections, in volumes that will be sure to prolong his usefulness and the gathered treasures of many days. Books of travel like these preach powerfully both of the ways of man and the ways of God.”—Christian Union.
