 greatly reduced. 



The Catskill Mountain Express, which leaves New

A Voyage to Viking=Land. 



BY THOMAS SEDGWICK STEELE. 



Estes & Lauriat, Publishers, Boston, Mass. 

 A delightful and breezy account of this 

 celebrated artist's trip to the "Land of the 

 Midnight Sun." The book is not only an in- 

 valuable guide to those contemplating a trip to 

 Norway, but is so full of life studies of the 

 country and its people that with its vivid illus- 

 trations affords an afternoon or evening of en- 

 joyment next only to the trip itself. Most books 

 of travel are rather dry, and the illustrations 

 commonplace ; in this case, however, the 

 author has overcome both objections. The 

 reading matter is entertaining, and the illustra- 

 tions much superior to those ordinarily found 

 in such works.
