lo A CATALOGUE OF 



THE OLD GARDENS OF ITALY— HOW TO 



VISIT THEM. By Mrs. Aubrey Le Blond. With loo 

 Illustrations from her own Photographs. Crown 8vo. 5s. net. 



%* Hitherto all books on the old gardens of Italy have been large, costly, and 

 incomplete, and designed for the library rather than for the traveller. Mrs. 

 Aubrey Le Blond, during the course of a series of visits to all parts ot Italy, has 

 compiled a volume that garden lovers can carry with them, enabling them to 

 decide which gardens are worth visiting, where they are situated, how they may 

 be reached, il special permission to see them is required, and how this may be 

 obtained. Though the book is practical and technical, the artistic element is 

 supplied by the illustrations, one at least of which is given tor each of the 71 

 gardens described. Mrs. Aubrey Le Blond was the illustrator of the monumental 

 work by H. Inigo Triggs on "The Art ot Garden Design in Italy," and has since 

 taken three special journeys to that country to collect material for her " The Old 

 Gardens of Italy." 



The illustrations have been beautifully reproduced by a new process which 

 enables them to be printed on a rough light paper, instead of the highly glazed 

 and weighty paper necessitated by half-tone blocks. Thus not only are the 

 illustrations delightful to look at, but the book is a pleasure to handle instead of 

 a dead weight. 



DOWN THE MACKENZIE AND UP THE 



YUKON. By E. Stewart. With 30 Illustrations and a Map. 

 Crown 8vo. 5s. net. 



*^* Mr. Stewart was former Inspector of Forestry to the Government of 

 Canada, and the experience he thus gained, supplemented by a really remarkable 

 journey, will prove of great value to those who are interested in the commercial 

 growth of Canada. The latter portion of his book deals with the various peoples, 

 animals, industries, etc., of the Dominion; while the story of the journey he 

 accomplished provides excellent reading in Part I. Some of the difficulties he 

 encountered appeared insurmountable, and a description of his perilous voyage 

 in a native canoe with Indians is quite haunting. There are many interesting 

 illustrations of the places of which he writes.

 English Socialists. 



THE STRUGGLE FOR BREAD. By "A 



Rifleman " Crown 8vo. 5s. net. 



%*^- This book is a reply to Mr. Norman Angell's well-known work, "The 

 Great Illusion" and also an enquiry into the present economic state of Europe. 

 The author, examining the phenomenon of the high food-prices at present ruling 

 in all great civilized states, proves by statistics that these are caused by a 

 relative decline in the production of food-stuffs as compared with the increase in 

 general commerce and the production of manufactured-articles. and that con- 

 sequently there has ensued a rise in the exchange-values ot manufactured-articles, 

 which with our system of society can have no other effect than of producing high 

 food-prices and low wages. The author proves, moreover, that this is no tem- 

 porary fluctuation of prices, but the inevitable outcome of an economic movement, 

 which whilst seen at its fullest development during the last few years has been 

 slowly germinating for the last quarter-century. Therefore, food-prices must 

 continue to rise whilst wages must continue to fall.
