" For 47 years, as a public man and a missionary, he worked, he wrote, he spoke, and in 

 countless ways he joyfully toiled for the people of India. While viceroys and governors, 

 scholars and travellers, officials and merchants, succeeded each other, and passed away all too 

 rapidly, he remained a permanent living force, a mediator between the natives and the 

 governing class, an interpreter of the various Asiatic races, creeds, and longings, to their 

 alien but benevolent rulers. From Central India to Central Africa, and from Cabul to 

 Comorin, there are thousands who call John Wilson blessed." — Author's Pre/ace.

The Cities and Cemeteries of Etruria. 



By GEORGE DENNIS. 



A New Edition. Revised and Enlarged so as to incorporate all the 



most Recent Discoveries. 



With Maps and 200 Illustrations. 2 I ~ols. Medium "ivo. 42s. 



"Since the publication of the former edition of this work in 1848, many important 

 discoveries have been made in Etruria ; and the interest in such discoveries has so greatly 

 increased that museums have been established in not a few provincial towns, and private 

 collections have become numerous. I have had the gratification of learning that the former 

 edition of this work, apart from literary and antiquarian considerations, has received the 

 approval of not a few who have used it as a guide, on account of the conscientious accuracy 

 of its descriptions. I trust that the present issue will maintain its reputation in this respect, 

 for to ensure correctness has been my primary endeavour. "—Author's Preface. 



"A very full and valuable book, which everyone interested in art and archaeology should 

 read."— Bui Iter.
