YOUNG COLLECTOR SERIES. 



Each Volume is very fully illustrated with practical woodcuts, and bound in fiat 



cloth extra, Is. each (post free, Is. 2d.) 



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

 to understand how works Hke 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." — Kiiowledqe. 



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

 Saturday Review. 



" 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 books." — Academy.
