THE CRESCENT AND THE CROSS;
OR,
ROMANCE AND REALITIES OF EASTERN TRAVEL.
By ELIOT B. G. WARBURTON, Esq.
SEVENTH EDITION, 2 vols., with numerous Illustrations, 21s. bound.
"Independently of its value as an original narrative, and its useful and
interesting information, this work is remarkable for the colouring power
and play of fancy with which its descriptions are enlivened. Among its
greatest and most lasting charms is its reverent and serious
spirit."--_Quarterly Review._
"We could not recommend a better book as a travelling
companion."--_United Service Magazine._

HOCHELAGA;
OR,
ENGLAND IN THE NEW WORLD.
Edited by ELIOT WARBURTON, Esq.,
Author of "The Crescent and the Cross."
THIRD EDITION, 2 vols., post 8vo., with Illustrations, 21s. bound.
"We recommend 'Hochelaga' most heartily, in case any of our readers may
as yet be unacquainted with it."--_Quarterly Review._
"This work has already reached a third edition. We shall be surprised if
it do not go through many. It possesses almost every qualification of a
good book--grace, variety, and vigour of style--a concentrated power of
description, which has all the effect of elaborate painting--information
carefully collected and judiciously communicated--sound and enlarged
views of important questions--a hearty and generous love of country--and
the whole pervaded by a refined but sometimes caustic humour, which
imparts a constant attraction to its pages. We can cordially recommend
it to our readers, as well for the amusement of its lighter portions,
the vivid brilliancy of its descriptions, and the solid information it
contains respecting Canada, and the position generally of England in the
new world."--_John Bull._
