G. H. KINAHAN. 

 A Handy Book of Rock Names. Fcap. 8vo, 45. 



"This will prove, we do not doubt, a very useful little book to all practical geo- 

 logists, and also to the reading student of rocks. When a difficulty is incurred as to 

 a species of deposit, it will soon vanish. Mr Kinahan's little book will soon make it 

 all clear. The work is divided into three parts. The first is a classified table of rocks, 

 the second part treats of the Ingenite rocks, and the third part deals with those rocks 

 which are styled Derivate. Dana's termination of yte has been most generally used 

 by the author, but he has also given the ite terminations for those that like them. 

 The book will be purchased, for it must be had, by every geologist ; and as its size is 

 small, it will form a convenient pocket companion for the man who works over field 

 and quarry." Popular Science Review. 



REV. F. G. LEE, D.D. (Vicar of All Saint s\ Lambeth}. 



Sights and Shadows. Being Examples of the Supernatural. New 

 Edition. With a Preface addressed to the Critics. Crown 8vo, 6s. 



" This work will be especially interesting to students of the supernatural, and their 

 name is legion at the present moment. It deals with more than one branch of what is 

 commonly known as spiritualism. The introduction gives a brief resume' of various 

 forms of magic and divination which have obtained credence in all ages, and later on 

 we find well-authenticated accounts of apparitions, supernatural warnings, hypnotic 

 experiments, and miracles of healing. Mr Lee evidently believes that ' there are more 

 things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in our philosophy, 1 and few sane people 

 will disagree with him, though they may not be inclined to accept all his opinions and 

 assertions as they stand." L ad y. 



" Here we have ghostly stories galore, which believers in supernatural visitations 

 will welcome as upholders of the faith that is in them. Dr Lee is a hard hitter anc 7 a 

 vigorous controversialist, with a righteous contempt for your Darwins and Stuirt 

 Mills, and such like folk, and is not above suggesting that some of them have a decided 

 worship of the god Self. As for ' the pompous jargon and silly cynicism which so 

 many public scribes again and again make use of to throw discredit upon any phase of 

 the supernatural,' I have nothing to say. They can take care of themselves. This 

 much I know, that 'Sights and Shadows' gives one an eerie feeling as midnight 

 approaches and the fire flickers on the hearth." Gentlewoman. 



COL. G. B. MALLESON. 



History of the French in India. From the Founding of Pondicherry 

 in 1674, to the Capture of that place in 1761. New and Revised 

 Edition, with Maps. Demy 8vo, i6s. 



" Colonel Malleson has produced a volume alike attractive to the general reader and 

 valuable for its new matter to the special student. It is not too much to say that now, 

 for the first time, we are furnished with a faithful narrative of that portion of European 

 enterprise in India which tarns upon the contest waged by the East India Company 

 against French influence, and especially against Dnpleix." Edinburgh Review. 



" It is pleasant to contrast the work now before us with the writer's first bold plunge 

 into historical composition, which splashed every one within his reach. He swims now 

 with a steady stroke, and there is no fear of his sinking. With a keener insight into 

 human character, and a larger understanding of the sources of human action, he com- 

 bines all the power of animated recital which invested his earlier narratives with 

 popularity." Fortnightly Review. 



" The author has had the advantage of consulting the French archives, and his 

 volume forms a useful supplement to Onne." Athenaeum.
