Reads like a romance from beginning to end. — SPRINGFIELD REPUBLICAN. 



Old Saint Augustine. 



By CHARLES B. REYNOLDS (Forest and Stream). 



THE famous Florida town's three centuries have been crowded with romantic incidents; and 

 a story of wonderful interest is this, with its Huguenots and Spaniards, Franciscan Fathers, 

 English Sea Kings, Boucaniers, Minorcans, Liberty Boys, 

 and Seminoles. It is told vividly, in the briefest possible 

 compass, with strict historical accuracy, and with an enthu- 

 siasm that is manifest from the very first page to the last. 

 Among the illustrations are copies of some of the' very rare 

 drawings by Jacques Le Moyne, the French artist, who so 

 narrowly escaped massacre by the Spaniards in Florida, three 

 hundred years ago. Another very rare engraving is the plait 

 of the city in British times. The artotypes (or photographs 

 in permanent ink) are among the most beautiful book illus- 

 trations of the day. They are made from negatives taken 

 expressly for " Old St. Augustine," and are: Fort Marion 

 (four views), the Matanzas Fort, the City Gateway, the 

 Cathedral, the old Palm-tree, Garden Overlooking Plaza, and 

 two very characteristic St. Augustine Houses. Cloth, pp. 144, 

 8vo. Price, $1.50. Forest and Stream Publishing Co.
