UBLICATIONS.
THE ROLL-CALL OF WESTMINSTER ABBEY. By Mrs. A. MURRAY SMITH (E.T.
Bradley), Author of 'Annals of Westminster Abbey' &c. THIRD EDITION.
With 25 Full-page Illustrations and 5 Plans. Large crown 8vo. 6_s._
_TIMES._--'It is impossible to read even the first chapter of this
highly interesting volume without forthwith realising that we have
here a work of a totally different order from the cheap book-making
which year by year selects Westminster Abbey for its subject. Such a
book as the "Roll-Call" could have been penned only by one who knows
and loves every feature in that glorious old pile; who has wandered
through its aisles every hour of the day and night; who has watched
the wondrous effects produced by the subtlest changes of light and
temperature: one, in short, who for upwards of twenty years has drunk
deeply of the spirit which haunts Westminster Abbey from end to end.
We must therefore offer a hearty welcome to this really excellent
work, and we are convinced that the great mass of historical material
which it contains will become more and more valuable as time goes on.'

THE NOISY YEARS. By Mrs. PERCY DEARMER, Author of 'Roundabout Rhymes'
&c. With Illustrations by EVA ROOS. Crown 8vo. 6_s._
_PALL MALL GAZETTE._--'The "Noisy Years" is really delicious. Indeed,
among the books about those small folk who have a "kingdom of their
own," we cannot think of any other coming within reasonable distance
of it for tenderness, grace, and charming humour.'

CALDERON. FOURTH IMPRESSION. With 16 Illustrations by the Author.

_MONTHLY REVIEW._--'Mr. George Calderon has joined in a conspiracy
with the Kiplings, the Somervilles, and other persons of ambidextrous
gifts to raise the standard of authorship to a height beyond the reach
of ordinary genius.'
