" They contain just the kind and amount of information required. . It is not easy 



to understand how works like these, written by men of science in the various departments, 

 can be made a commercial success. Certainly nothing but the enormous circulation which- 

 they well deserve can render them so." — Knowledge. 



" We have seen nothing better than this series. It is cheap, concise, and practical." — 

 Saturday Revieu. 



" We are glad to call attention to this excellent series of handbooks, which deserve to be 

 widely known. . , We are glad to see the staff of the British Museum thus coming 

 forward to make popular the stores of learning which they have. . The illustrations 



are uniformly good — far better than in many expensive bo6ks." — Academy.
