BAKER'S (JAMES) TURKEY. 8vo, with two maps. $4.00

"His work, like Mr. Wallace's, is in many parts a revelation, as it
has had no predecessor, which was so founded upon personal
observation, and at the same time so full of that sort of detailed

Series of Sketches of Tyrolese Life and Customs, 16mo. (Leisure Hour
Series.) $1.00.

"He has a bright, easy style, and, indeed, most of his adventures
are so extraordinary as almost to verge on the brink of the
incredible. We can recommend the book as singularly readable from
