 WALLACE, Esq. With Remarks on the Vocabularies of Amazonian Lan-

Royal 8vo, 18*. 



"Mr. Wallace's explorations on the Amazon and Rio Negro, the northern branch of that 

 mighty river, form an enchanting work. In the novelty of its scenery and manners, in the 

 truthful, albeit somewhat literal, picture of what the traveller saw and felt, in the quiet 

 earnestness by which obstacles were surmounted, by Talleyrand's favourite rule of waiting, 

 and in the patience with which sickness, suffering, and privation were submitted to, 

 ' Travels on the Amazon and Rio Negro ' remind us of the simplicity of the old voyagers." 



SPECTATOR. 



" Observant of everything around him, and gifted with all the qualifications essential to 

 the discharge of his task, the author has presented us with a substantial and highly inter- 

 esting account of the Negro tribes of the Amazon, their habits, institutions, and manners, 

 all of which he does not fail to illustrate by a profusion of anecdotes."

 substitutes for arts of the people ; and the natural productions of the country ; these

" Few more valuable volumes of travels than this by Dr. Thomson have been for a 

 long time past published. Long after the interest which its novelty will create shall 

 have passed away, it will be a standard book of reference, on account of the valuable facts 

 which it contains, and of the spirit of sound observation in which it is written."
