HE. MURRAY'S LIST OF NEW WORKS. 11 



A RE-ISSUE 



OF 



MUKRAY'S 

 HOME AND COLONIAL LIBRARY, 



AT A REDUCED PRICE. 



THE object of MR. MURRAY'S COLONIAL LIBRARY, when first pub- 

 lished, was to furnish the highest Literature of the day, at a very low 

 price. The great success which has attended its publication shows how well 

 suited it was to the wants of the reading public at that period. Since then a 

 fresh class of readers has arisen, and the establishment of Literary Institu- 

 tions, School and Village Clubs, Book Hawking Societies, Parochial and 

 Lending Libraries, has become so general, that it appears to the Publisher 

 a good opportunity to disseminate these Volumes, at a rate which shall place 

 them within reach of the less wealthy classes. By removing the impediment 

 of price, he hopes to throw open these attractive and useful Works to the 

 Million ; so that having hitherto been the delight of the Parlour and 

 Drawing-room, they may now do equally good service in the Factory and 

 Workshop in the Cottage of the Peasant and Log-hut of the Colonist in 

 the Soldier's Barrack and the Sailor's Cabin. 



The Works composing the "Colonial and Home Library" have been 

 selected for their acknowledged merit, the ability of their authors, and are 

 exclusively such as are calculated to please all classes and circles of readers. 

 The character of the work is made. It is so well known and esteemed as 

 no longer to require expensive advertising, so that the publisher is enabled 

 to circulate it at a great reduction in price. 



The attention of the Clergy, of Secretaries of Village Reading-Clubs, of 

 Masters of Factories and Schools, is especially invited to the above announce- 

 ment and the lists which follow, in which the various Works have been 

 arranged under two distinct heads. 



CLASS A. 



BIOGRAPHY, HISTOEY, AND HISTOKIC TALES. 



CLASS B. 



VOYAGES, TRAVELS, AND ADVENTURES. 



Each Work will be complete in itself, and may be obtained separately, 

 neatly bound in cloth.
