Aspinwall, Alicia. Story of Marie de Rozel—Huguenot. *75c. Dutton.
The wife of Marie de Rozel’s great-greatgrandson has written the true story of this brave little Huguenot maid and what befell her in the days when the people of her faith were persecuted in Catholic France. It is a pretty little tale and the author has given it to us unembellished, just as it came to her out of the dim past.
“Not quite so interesting as it should be, considering the material.”

Asser, Bishop of Sherbourne. Life of King Alfred, trans. from the text of Stevenson’s edition, with notes, by Albert S. Cook. *50c. Ginn.
The Bishop of Sherbourne’s quaint contemporary account of England’s greatest king is here given in a form which will appeal to students in schools and colleges as well as to the general reader. The Latin text, thru the critical labors of Stevenson, has been cleared of many Elizabethan interpolations, and the present translation is accurate and well annotated.
