 America. Vol. IV., Antiquities. Svo, pp. ix. —807. (London : Trubner 

 and Co. San Francisco : The History Pub. Co. 1880.) 



This is to us the most interesting of the series f)f fiistorical Works that has 

 yet reached us. It treats of Monumental Archceology, and presents a detailed 

 description of all material relics of the past, discovered within the territory 

 under consideration. In this volume, a map showing the " location "' of the 

 ancient monuments, and 395 wood-cuts are given to assist in the description of 

 the Antiquities, which have for the most part been left by the civilised nations. 

 After an Archaeological introduction, we have first a description of the Anti- 

 quities of the Isthmus, Costa Rica, Mosquito Coast, and Nicaragua, followed 

 by the Antiquities of Salvador and Ilondurus, Guatemala and I^elize, Vucatan, 

 Tabasco and Chiapas, Cajaca and Guerrebo, Vera Cruz, The Central Plateaux 

 Northern Mexican States, Arizona and New Mexico, The Northwest, Works 

 of the Mound Builders, and Peruvian Antiquities.

 a large amount of valuable letterpress information, it contains 96 double- 

 page maps, nicely coloured and distinctly printed. At the end of the book

The Illustrated Medical News. (London : The Illustra- 

 ted Medical News Publishing (Company, 376 Strand, W.C.) 



This is a royal 4to weekly Medical Journal, and intended exclusively for 

 members of the profession. No. 22 is a special number devoted to the study of 

 Osteitis deformans. The frontispiece to this number is a fine lithographic 

 plate, showing front and side view of two skeletons. Each number contains 

 a lithographic plate often in many colours, and is further embellished with a 

 number of wood engravings and photo-mechanical illustrations. No efforts 

 are spared to make this Journal one of the leading publications of the day, and 

 certainly no medical library can be considered complete unless it contains a 

 perfect set.
