Magellan planting the Cro^s in the Philippine Islands. 



OF the many dramatic chapters of the romantic decades ot discovery in the tltteenth and 

 sixteenth centuries, " The Story of Magellan " yields to none in picturesqueness and he- 

 roic quality. Mr. Butterworth's story of the conditions preceding Magellan's expedition, of the 

 adventures of the voyage, the discovery of the Philippines, and the completion of the first cir- 

 cumnavigation of the globe, records the facts of history which are in themselves more wonder- 

 ful and engrossing than any fiction. Older as well as younger readers will be fascinated by 

 this vivid account of the first contact between white men and the natives of the Philippines. 

 An appendix furnishes some modern information regarding those much-discussed islands and 

 their inhabitants. In addition to the artist's illustrations, various maps, portraits, and pictures 

 of places increase the historical value of this instructive book.
