London in English Literature. By Percy Holmes Boynton, 
Assistant Professor of English Literature in the University of 
Chicago. 
358 pages, 8vo, cloth; $2.00, postpaid $2.17 
This volume differs from all other volumes on London in 
that it gives a consecutive illustrated account of London not from 
the point of view of the antiquarian but from that of the inquiring 
student of English literary history. 
It deals with ten consecutive periods, characterized in turn 
by the work and spirit of Chaucer, Shakespeare, Milton, Dryden, 
Addison, Johnson, Lamb, Dickens, and by the qualities of Vic- 
torian and contemporary London. The emphasis is thus dis- 
tributed over history and given largely to the richer and more 
recent literary periods. The temper of each epoch is discussed, 
and then in particular those literary works which are intimately 
related to certain localities in London. 
The work contains four maps and forty-three other illustra- 
tions, selected from the best of a great fund of material. As 
further aids to the student or the general reader, the sources of 
all material are indicated by footnotes and lists of illustrative 
reading are appended to each chapter. There are also an 
appendix with detailed references to illustrative novels, and a 
carefully compiled index. 
Christian Faith for Men of Today. By E, Albert Cook, Professor 
of Systematic Theology in the Congregational College of Canada. 
276 pages, 12mo, cloth; $1.25, postpaid $1.35 
This volume contains a clear and reasonable interpretation 
of life from the Christian point of view, and some definite formu- 
lation of those beliefs that have proved most effectual in the 
development of individual character and in the promotion of the 
welfare of society. Professor Cook believes that Christianity 
is the religion which best meets the needs of all races and classes. 
€ convenient arrangement of the material in numbered para- 
graphs, the valuable appendices, and the general systematic 
treatment of the subject commend the book as a popular text 
for college men and women, and for adult classes and clubs as 
well as for general reading.
