14 ME. REEVE'S LIST OF PUBLICATIONS. 



36. 



Manual of British Archeology. 



By the Rev. CHARLES BOUTELL, M.A. With 20 coloured plates. 

 Royal 16mo, price 10*. 6d. 



" Its simple clearness, the result of thorough knowledge in the writer, entices, so to 

 peak, the attentive reader into a pursuit for which it qualifies him by insensible degrees, 

 and the high tone of refined culture which pervades the book communicates an involuntary 

 enthusiasm for a study too often allied with pedantry and curious dullness." LEADER. 



"The illustrations, twenty in number, consist of coloured plates of architectural details, 

 heraldic and wall diapers, coloured glass pavement tiles, monumental slabs and brasses, 

 tone coffins and their effigies, heraldic devices, badges and banners, seals, inscriptions, 

 celts, arms and armour, beads, ornaments, pottery and enamels." OBSERVER. 



37. 



A Survey of the Early Geography of Western 



Europe, as connected with the First Inhabitants of Britain, their Origin, 

 Language, Religious Rites, and Edifices. By HENRY LAWES LONG, Esq. 



** Printed uniformly with the Collections of the Surrey Archaeological Society. 



38. 



Literary Papers on Scientific Subjects. 



By the late Professor EDWARD FORBES, F.R.S., selected from his Writings 

 in the ' Literary Gazette.' With a Portrait and Memoir. 



Small 8vo, price 6*. 



"This reprint of reviews forms a charming book of miscellaneous essays. The criti- 

 cism is genial, sensible, comprehensive, and compact. It is not common to find eminent 

 scientific men graceful, easy, and piquant litterateurs; but whenever such a union of 

 claims to public favour is manifested, it should meet with honour due. But, besides being 

 a scientific professor, a critic, and litterateur, the late Edward Forbes was before afl 

 things a man genial, sympathetic, brave, and true a thorough good fellow, as good a 

 fellow as he was a naturalist. The reader cannot do better than possess himself of this 

 amusing and instructive volume, if he have a liking for science without solemnity, criti- 

 cism without ill-nature, and with knowledge of the subject ; pleasant talk with a definite 

 result, and a sense of the comic without the vulgar error of turning all things to a jest." 



GLOBB. 



39. 



Parks and Pleasure Grounds ; 



Or, Practical Notes on Country Residences, Villas,, Public Parks, and 

 Gardens. By CHARLES H. J. SMITH, Landscape Gardener. 



Crown 8vo, price 6*. 



" Mr. Smith expresses himself with frankness as well as precision, and with such an evi- 

 dent reliance on the sympathy of his readers as to make him a favourite with those who are 

 familiar with his page*. In short, his book is what was really wanted in these busy times 

 to bring the elegant in country residences abreast of the useful.''
