" Unconducted Wanderers " is a very amusing^ travel book 

 of the best sort. After a spell of war work the author and 

 a woman friend went to America, and thence to the South 

 Seas, to Java, the Malay States, Siam, Cambodia, China 

 and Korea. The book is extremely lively in tone and fresh 

 in feeling-, and the observations and experiences of the trav- 

 ellers, particularly in China during" the Rebellion, are of 

 quite unusual interest, 



"Those in search of the perfect companion for a lazy afternoon in a 

 hammock will find their wants admirably supplied by ' Unconducted 

 Wanderers.' Their adventures are retailed with an unfailing humorous 

 touch, and the scenery and occupants of these far foreign strands are 

 painted in descriptive language, which is always vivid and at times 

 beautiful. " — Evening Statidard. 



" Happily and frankly instructive — ^just gossip, compounded of obser- 

 vation, humour, and the joy of the experience. Such a book is good to 

 read."— Westminster Gazette. 



"There is a freshness of its own in Mrs. Forbes' writing, due to her 

 zest for life, and to the vivid manner in which she sets down the 

 impressions that come crowding upon her." — Times.

 Demy 8vo. ']$. 6d. net 



Sir W. H. D'Oyly, who has spent a great many years in 

 the Indian Civil Service, retails in this volume a series of 

 amusing- stories of men and thing's. Always bright and 

 witty, he makes what he has seen and heard live again for 

 us, and the book forms an admirable anecdotic history of 

 life in India during the latter part of last century.
