6 MR. MURRAY’S LIST OF NEW WORKS. 
ARCHAOLOGY, ART AND RAVEL: 
BEING SKETCHES AND STUDIES HISTORICAL AND DESCRIPTIVE. 
BY RICHARD J. KING, B.A., 
Exeter College, Oxford. 
8vo, 12s. 
“ Mr. King, already well known to readers imbued with antiquarian tastes as the author of 
mony of Mr, Murray's handbooks for the English counties, has reprinted the articles which he 
has contributed during the last eighteen years to the periodical Press. He is a master in Eng- 
lish topography. Few of the antiquaries of our day surpass him in acquaintance either with 
English scenery or with the associations abundantly connected with every county throughout 
the land. While the essays in this volume travel over many entertaining fields af literature, a 
similarity of treatment connects the whole of them, and the most scrutinizing reader will fail 
to find a subject which the author's researches have not aided in elucidating”’—Tux Trmzs.

SCHOOL BOARD ARCHITECTURE: 
BEING PRACTICAL INFORMATION on tHe PLANNING, DESIGNING, 
BUILDING, AND FURNISHING OF SCHOOLHOUSES. 
BY E. R. ROBSON, F.B.I.B.A., 
ARCHITECT TO THE SCHOOL BOARD FOR LONDON. 
With 300 Illustrations. Medium S8vo. 31s. 6d. 
“* Mr. Robson's book contains the results of the experience and observation of several years, 
both here and abroad, and it is copiously illustrated with drawings that represent school 
buildings and apparatus, down to the smallest details, as they exist in the principal countrics 
of the Continent, in America, and here. The book is an admirably complete manual of its 
subject, which, were we concerned in any way with school-building, we should make a point of 
consulting, or rather studying. Nor is it only in building schools that the advice and infor- 
mation of the volume may be utilised with the greatest advantage. The chapters on 
‘ Warming and Ventilation,’ and on ‘School Furniture and Apparatus’ will be profitably 
studied. *Warminy’ is a most difficult problem,—one very seldom so solved as to combine 
comfort and health.” SPECTATOR. 
LIFE AND DEATH OF JOHN BARNEVELD. 
INCLUDING THE HISTORY OF THE PRIMARY CAUSES AND 
MOVEMENTS OF “THE THIRTY YEARS’ WAR.” 
BY JOHN LOTHROP MOTLEY, D.C.L., 
Author of the “ Rise of the Dutch Republic,” &c. 
With Illustrations. 2 vols. 28s. 
“ Mr. Motley is a historian in the true sense of the term. For abundance of matter, variety 
¥ ingredients, compression of details, and eloquence of style the work is a masterpiece of art. 
tis also a history of all Ewrope in one of its most interesting eras. The Soreground is Dutch, 
and the central figure is Barneveld, but the groups comprise all the leading statesmen of the 
period. While abounding with all the graces of style and a lively eloquence, it has been prepared 
with the precision of a legal record.’’—MoRNING Post.
