 The brilliant author of "The Cruise of the Cachalot " and "Idylls of the Sea" presents in this 

 new work the continuous story of the actual experiences of his first four years at sea. In graphic and 

 picturesque phrasis he has sketched the events of voyages to the ^^'est Indies, to Bombay and the 

 Coromandel cjast, to .Melbourne and Rangoon. Nothing could be of more absorbing interest than 

 this wonderfully vivid account of foks'l humanity and the adventures and strange sights and experiences 

 attendant upon deep-sea voyasjei. It is easy to see in this book an English companion to our own 

 " Two Years before thd Mast."

 Mr. RuDY.\RD Kipling writes the author: 



" It is immense — therein no other word. I've never read anything that equals it in its deep-sea 

 wonder and mystery, nor do I think that any book before has so completely covered the business of 

 whale-fishing, and at the same time given such real and new sea pictures. I congratulate you most 

 heartily. It's a new world that you've opened the door to."

Deminiscences of a Very Old Man. 



1808-1897. 

 By JOHN SADTAIN. Illustrated. 8vo. Cloth. (NeaHy Ready.) 



R. -SARTAIN was born in London, where as a 

 boy he witnessed the Peace Jubilee and saw 

 many picturesque phases of old London and its 

 Fi^ ^^'S^* ^C^ '■'^^ which have since disappeared. ■ He studied under 



V'arley and Richter and began to engrave in Ottley's 

 i/^^\ '"V school. In this countrj' his associations were literary 



^P>^*'^. ,A as well as artistic. He knew Washington Irving and 



^.''v.' i '"^ \ others of the Knickerbocker literary circle, and his 



close relations with Edgar Allan Poe form the sub- 

 ject of a most interesting chapter. His " Reminis- 

 cences" include personal ]:)hases of the development 

 of American art and letters for over sixty years, and 

 the unpublished history- which he presents is of most 

 intmiate interest. Mr. S'lrtain's career as editor of 

 Sartain's Union Magazine and other periodicals, in 

 addition to his high standing as an engraver, furnished 

 exceptional opportunities for a y)eculiarly rich acquaint- 

 anceship with men and women of distinction. The 

 illustrations include rei)roductions of rare old prints 

 London scenes in the first quarter of the century, together with American por- 

 its and i)ictur('S which have a lasting historical interest.
