 Islands, with a List of Sea-bathing Places. Extra fcap. 8vo.

Dr. Macpherson has divided his work info five parts. He begins by 

 a few introductory observations on bath life, its circumstances, uses. 

 and pleasures ; he then explains in detail the composition of the 

 various mineral waters, and points out the special curative pro- 

 perties of each class. A chapter on "The History of British 

 Wells'' 1 from the earliest period to the present time forms tin 

 natural transition to the second part of this volume, which treats oj 

 the different kinds of mineral waters in England, whether pure T 

 thermal and earthy, saline, chalybeate, or sulphur. Wales, Scot- 

 laud, and Ireland supply the materials for distinct sections. An 

 Index of mineral waters, one of sea-bathing places, and a third of 

 wells of pure or nearly pure water, terminate the book. "This little 

 volume forms a very available handbook for a large class of 

 invalids.'" — Nonconformist.
