The Humour of Holland. Translated, with an Introduction and 

 Notes, by A. Werner. With numerous Illustrations by Dudley 

 Hardy. 



" Apart from the quality of humour, one is much struck by the

 well drawn." — The Bookman.

 Notes, by StJSBTTB M. Taylor. With numerous Illustrations by

" Mirth and entertainment are in the book entitled the Humour 

 of Spain, as well as many quaint and unexpected side-lights 

 on the social characteristics of an impressionable race. Miss 

 Taylor displays a wide acquaintance with Spanish literature 

 and contemporary life, and as her judgment as well as her 

 knowledge is considerable, the result is a charming be Ok." — 

 The Speaker, 



" The impression of the whole book is a good one, and it is 

 admirably got up, and illustrated with great spirit. It should 

 be very largely read." — Daily Chronicle,

 examples of humour, such as Gogol's diverting little cotnedy, 

 ' Marriage," and Ostrovsky's delightful sketch, ' Incompati- 

 bility of Temper. ' " — Saturday Review.
