* * THE ROAD TO EN-DOR By E. H. JONES, Lt, I.A.R.O. With Illustrations by C. W. HILL, Lt., R.A.F. Fourth Edition. 8s. 6d. net. This book, besides telling an extraordinary story, will appeal to everyone who is interested in spiritualism. The book reads like a wild romance, but is authenticated in every detail by fellow-officers and official documents. _Times._--"Astounding ... of great value." _Daily Telegraph._--"This is one of the most realistic, grimmest, and at the same time most entertaining books ever given to the public.... _The Road to En-dor_ is a book with a thrill on every page, is full of genuine adventure.... Everybody should read it." _Morning Post._--"It is easily the most surprising story of the escape of prisoners of war which has yet appeared.... No more effective exposure of the methods of the medium has ever been written. This book is indeed an invaluable reduction to absurdity of the claims of the spiritualist coteries." _Birmingham Post._--"The story of surely the most colossal 'fake' of modern times." _Daily Graphic._--"The most amazing story of the war." _Spectator._--"The reader who begins this book after dinner will probably be found at one o'clock in the morning still reading, with eyes goggling and mouth open, beside his cold grate." _Punch._--"It is the most extraordinary war-tale which has come my way.

Jones and Hill displayed an inventiveness, an ingenuity, and a patience worthy of the greatest admiration." _Outlook_.--"The book deserves to become a classic." _Illustrated London News_.--"It is an amazing story, humorously told, of a subtle and successful conspiracy to escape. But it is also a most telling indictment of the spiritualistic craze." _New Age_.--"As a mere story of adventure and suffering the book is one of the most remarkable known to me; it is an epic of human ingenuity and human endurance." _Queen_.--"Sensa
