Beaconsfield, Benjamin Disraeli, earl of. [Endymion; with a critical introd. on his writings by Edmund Gosse.] $1.50. Cambridge soc., 135 5th av., N. Y.
“In ‘Endymion’ ... the hand of the author has dealt with matters with which he was more than familiar, the political complications and developments of the thirties and forties of the last century. It is in reality an autobiography, and the figures which move through the varied scenes of the story are thinly disguised personages of high rank and great importance.”—Pub. Opin.
“Despite its priggish tone and frequent sneers, the book has a human quality which is likely to give it a life that even the great fame of its author could not have assured it had those qualities been wanting.”

Beale, Joseph Henry, jr. Law of foreign corporations and taxation of corporations both foreign and domestic. sh. [*]$6. W: J. Nagel, 6 Ashburton place, Boston.
“In this country alone of great modern commonwealths, every state jurisdiction is a ‘foreign’ jurisdiction in every other state; and every corporation chartered by one state is a foreign corporation in every other.... It is made more complicated still by the concurrent existence of still a third (federal) jurisdiction.... The subject of taxation is naturally involved.... The author has devoted considerable space to the statutory provisions of states and territories, as well as of Great Britain and Canada.”—Nation.
“There is, we believe, no other which covers the field explored by Mr. Beale, to the exclusion of other topics, and this fact alone would make the work professionally important.”
