“Just the book for which there is really a definite demand, and to supply it in a way that in 
scholarlj' merit, comprehensiveness of range, charm of narration, and splendor of pictorial ei’nbellish- 
ment may readily be accepted as final. The qualifications of Professor Grosvenor for the great task 
he has undertaken and carried to so successful a conclusion are oh\'\ows.''— Beacon. 
“ Will prove of double use in the world of letters. For those who read at home of far-awaj' cities 
this exhaustive and admirable work will open a mine of pleasure and information, enabling them to 
find in fancy the old city almost from its early mythological beginnings down to the present hour.” — 
Transcript. 
“An important and valuable work on this famous city. * ♦ * Constantinople is at present a 
subject of eager European intere.st and discussion, owing to the unsettled state of affair.s between the 
Porte and the great Powers, the constant reports of grave insurrections, and the graver fears of a 
possible and momentous war. A description of the city and its surroundings has, therefore, a timely 
interest far bej'ond the ordinary." — Churchman. 
” It is a book for all who have an interest in the world outside their own door, for the unlearned 
and the learned, for the traveller and for him who stays at home."— il/a// and H.vpress. 
“The lMX.»k is a monument of scholarly, conscientious work, and should have a place in every 
well-equipped library the country through .” — Christian H'ork. 
“ There could hardly be a more propitious time than just now for the apin-arance of the great 
work ‘Constantinople.’ It is no exaggeration to say that it is the most important ]>opuIar treatise 
on Constantinople from the historical and arclueological point of view that has yet appeared in 
English, and coming as it does at a time when the fate of the capital of the Ka.st is hanging in the 
balance, it can hardly fail of being one of the books of the year. 
“An immense collection of the choicest jihotographs was gathered for the enrichment of its 
pages, so that after finishing the book the reader has almost the .sensation of having himself 
visited the places described."— Republican.
