Looking down the list of contributors to this volume, 

 one begins, not to think of who is in it, but to try and 

 remember the few writers and artists in the front rank 

 who are not in it. There are a dozen names, any 

 single one of which would be enough to cause a rush 

 on an ordinary magazine. 



Rudyard Kipling, William de Morgan, Hall Caine, 

 W. J. Locke, Conan Doyle, W. W. Jacobs, Gilbert 

 Parker, Israel Zangwill, Elinor Glyn, De Vere Stacpool, 

 the Baroness Orczy, Owen Seaman, Mrs. F. A. Steel, 

 Arthur Morrison, Mrs. C. N. Williamson, Victoria 

 Cross, Jerome K. Jerome, Robert Hichens these are 

 a few out of a list of nearly forty ; whilst the artists 

 include, amongst many others, Sir Charles Holroyd, 

 Frank Brangwyn, Shepperson, G. L. Stampa, John 

 Hassell, Starr Wood. 



Moreover, the contributors have given of their 

 best stuff worthy of what will undoubtedly be the 

 record publication of the Coronation Year. To 

 mention one feature alone, Rudyard Kipling's new 

 poem, " The Spies' March " this by itself, the best 

 thing he has written since " The Recessional," a 

 return to the old Kipling style, a thing which will 

 live would suffice to sell the volume. 



Mr. Alfred Praga has arranged and supervised the 

 illustrations, whilst Mr. Stanley Portal Hyatt, who 

 suggested the whole scheme, is the general editor.
