KBR Sermons by the Rev. John Ker, D.D., Glas- 

 gow. Eleventh edition. Crown 8vo, 6s. 



" This is a very remarkable volume of sermons. "We have not seen a volume 

 of sermons for many a day which will so thoroughly repay both purchase and 

 perusal and re-perusal. And not the least merit of these sermons is, that they 

 are eminently suggestive." Contemporary Review. 



"The sermons before us are indeed of no common order ; among a host of 

 competitors they occupy a high class we were about to say the highest class 

 whether viewed in point of composition, or thought, or treatment. " British 

 and Foreign Evangelical Review.

 page and ten Woodcut Illustrations, 21s. 



" This is a charming volume in every respect." Notes and Queries. 



" The prominent characteristics of the work are its exhaustiveness and the 

 thoroughly philosophic spirit in which it is written." Scotsman. 



"It will repay attentive and minute study on the part even of those who 

 may be well acquainted with the subject with which it deals. Any one who 

 peruses it will gain no imperfect idea of the whole past history of religion and 

 civilisation in this country." Fifeshire Journal.

 dores Abbey and Newburgh are but the centre around which are clustered 

 masses of historical, antiquarian, and genealogical lore." Dundee Advertiser. 



"The contents of the volume are full of interest, do the utmost credit to 

 the author, and give it a strong claim to a plae on the shelves of all who have 

 a taste for reading in the line of his researches." Daily Review. 



" Out of scattered ancient records, both literary and sculptured stones, the 

 author has produced a most interesting and instructive work." Dundee 

 Courier.

 Perthshire Advertiser.

 witchcraft, industrial pursuits, and old customs and folk-lore." Courant. 



" We have the pleasant duty of giving unqualified commendation of the 

 author's valuable work." Perth Constitutional.
