 He is occasionally eloquentj and oven pathetic. In all that he saj's we perceive a 

 transparent honesty and singleness of purpose."— Saiwrday Review.

 less manner the stern verdict which Sir Morell's own profession bo generally passed

" Sir Frederick Roberts says of the letters here published in a collected form that 

 'nothing could be more^ accurate or graphic.' As to accuracy no one can be a more 

 competent judge than Sir Frederick, and his testimony stamps the bojk before us as 

 constituting especially trustworthy material for history. Of much that he relates Mr 

 Hensman was an eye-witness ; of the rest he was informed by eye-witnesses immedi- 

 ately after the occurrence of the events recorded. There could, therefore, be IHtle doubt 

 as to the facts mentioned. Credibility might be concurrent with incorrect deductions, 

 but we are assured by Sir Frederick Roberts that Mr Hensman's accuracy is complete 

 in all respects. Mr Hensman enjoyed singular advantages during the first part of the 

 war, for he was the only special correspondent who accompanied the force which 

 marched out of Ali Kheyl in September 1879. One of the most interesting portions of 

 the book is that which describes the march of Sir Frederick Roberts from Cabul to 

 Gandahar. Th6 description of the Maiwand disaster is given with combined clearness, 

 simplicity, and power, and will be read with the utmost interest. Indeed, the book is 

 in every respect interesting and well written, and reflects the greatest credit on the 

 author." — Athenceum.

Popular Lectures on Scientific Subjects. New Edition, crown 8vo, 

 6s. 

 " We are reminded of the rapid progress mide by science within the last quarter of 

 a century by the publication of a new edition of Sir John Herschel's Popular Lectures 

 on Scientifi:^ Subjects. In 1861, spectrum analysis, as applied to the heavenly bodies, 

 was referred to as a possibility ; now it is not only an accomplished fact, but the 

 analysis of the gases contained in the sun has led to the discovery of one of them, 

 helium, upon the earth. Some of the lectures, such as that on light, are practically 

 popular treatises on the particular subject to which they refer, and can be read with 

 advantage even by advanced students." — The Westminster Review.
