The Bavarian Mountains and the 

 Salzkammergut. 



With an Account of the Habits and Manners of the Hunters, Poachers, and 

 Peasantry of these Districts. 



BY HERMAN SCHMID AND KARL STIELER. 

 With 143 Illustrations. Super-royal /{.to. 255. 



From the "Saturday Review." 



" This work, a translation from the German of H. Schmid and K. Stieler, while it is 

 interesting in itself, will also be found very useful by those who intend to make a tour in 

 the Bavarian Highlands. A tourist in a country that is new to him often finds, towards the 

 close of his trip, that he has missed those very spots in which he would have found most 

 pleasure. With such a work as this before him, and with the help of a good map too, he 

 can make such a pleasant and careful study of the district that when his summer vacation 

 has at length come he will have a well-planned tour before him. The days of touring, 

 however, for some are already past, for others will never come. In the illustrations of this 

 handsome volume, which are both abundant and good, will be fpund much to interest stay-at- 

 home folks." 



The Amazon and Madeira Rivers. 



Sketches and Descriptions from the Note Book of an Explorer. 



BY FRANZ KELLER, ENGINEER. 

 With 68 Illustrations. Super-royal 4to. 2 is. 



From the "Saturday Review." 



" Mr, Keller was commissioned by the Brazilian Government, as he tells us in his preface 

 to his very instructive work, ' to explore the Madeira River, and to project a railway along 

 its bank, when, by reason of the rapids, navigation was rendered impossible." He has given 

 us, in a concise form, the results of his explorations, so far as they would be interesting to 

 the general reader. His narrative is adorned by a large number of carefully-drawn illustra- 

 tions. We hope that the Brazilian Government was as fortunate in having Mr. Keller for 

 their engineer, as we deem ourselves fortunate in having him as the explorer of a country 

 which is still so little known." 



MAJOR WHYTE-MELVILLE, 



Katerfelto. 



A Story of Exmoor. BY G. J. WHYTE-MELVILLE. 



With 12 Illustrations by COL. H. HOPE CREALOCKE. 



Demy Svo. Third Edition. i6s. 



From ttte " Morning Post," February tfh, 1875. 



" In this story of Exmoor, the events of which take place more than a century ago, Major 

 Whyte-Melville presents us with a capital view of certain phases of life at that period, and 

 the tale is told in so realistic and spirited a manner that the reader's interest, excited at 

 once, never flags ; but, on the contrary, only reaches its climax at the very dramatic con- 

 clusion. In fact, ' Katerfelto ' reads more like a novel by Lord Lytton than anything else 

 we have met for a long time. . . . We must not take leave of ' Katerfelto ' without noticing 

 Colonel Hope Crealocke's spirited illustrations.",
