 Anatomy of the Horse" ^'c. 



The Horse : as he Was," as he Is, and as he Ought to Be, with 

 Ilhistrations. Crown 8vo, 3s. 6d. 



" "Written with a good object in view, namely, to create an interest in the important 

 subject of horse-breeding, more especially that class known as general utility horses. 

 The book contains several illustrations, is well primed and handsomely bound, and we 

 hope will meet with the attention it deserves." — Live Stock Journal. 



/; MORRIS, Author of " The War in Korea,'' <Sr=<r., thirteen years 

 resident in Tokio under the Japanese Board of Works. 



Advance Japan. A Nation Thoroughly in Earnest. With over 100 

 Illustrations by R. Isayama, and of photographs lent by the Japanese 

 Legation. 8vo, 12s. 6d. 



"Mr Morris evidently knows the country well, and is a strong believer in its 

 future ; his book will be found a useful summary of recent historj-, abounding in good 

 character sketches, accompanied with photographs, of the leading men. "—Times. 



" Is really a remarkably complete account of the land, the people, and the institu- 

 tions of Japan, with chapters that deal with matters of such living interest as its 

 growing industries and armaments, and the origin, incidents, and probable outcome 

 of the war with China. The volume is illustrated by a Japanese artist of repute ; it 

 has a number of useful statistical appendices, and it is dedicated to His Majesty the 

 Mikado. "— Scotsman. 



" Mr Morris, who writes, of course, with thorough local knowledge, gives a very 

 complete and eminently readable account of the countrj-, it'^ tovernment, people, and 

 resource. . . The work, which contains a large number of portraits an< I other illustra- 

 tions, is decidedly ' on the nail,' and may be recommended not only as a book to read, 

 but as of value for reference."— Westmmster Gazette. 



"Puts before us a clear view of the point which has been reached. His work is 

 historical, social, and descriptive ; we see in it the Japanese of to-day as he really is. 

 Mr Morria has also something to say on the Japanese at home— how he eats, how he 

 dresses, and how he comports himself ; while wider issues are discussed in the chapters 

 treating of the administration of the islands, their ports, communications, trades, and 

 armaments. ' '—Globe. 



" A well-proportioned sketch of the Japanese of to-day, so recent as to include the 

 results of the war. . . There is much else I should like to quote in this able and 

 interesting book. It has a good chapter on natural history, and an excellent chapter 

 on diet, dress, and manners ; it gives just enough of Japanese history to help the 

 ordinary reader who wants to learn his Japan on easy terms ; it has also most useful 

 and attractively conveyed information in its brief account of the principal cities of 

 Japan, communications and armament, language and literature, mines and minerals." 

 —Queen. 



"He summarises clearly, concisely, the existing knowledge on the Japanese Parlia- 

 mentary system, territorial and administrative divisions, natural history, domestic 

 and national customs, dynastic changes, old feudal institutions, town populations, 

 industries, mineral and other natural resources, rnilways, armaments, the press, and 

 other subjects too many for enumeration. Evt- n the chapter on language and litera- 

 ture makes an appalling subject interesting. ... Mr Morris has brought his very use- 

 ful account of Japan up-to-date. He gives a good summary of the recent war with 

 China, and then proceeds to make some wtll considered su£rge^tions on a matter of 

 supreme importance to Europe no less than to the twd Empires of the Far East."
