THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA. By Dr. W. E. 
Geil. With Illustrations. Demy 8 vo. 21 s. net. 
“ The publication of ‘ The Great Wall of China ’ is a notable event. It ought to rank 
as a classic upon this greatest and grandest of all the world’s monuments .”—Leeds Mercury. 
“ It is not within our memory that the Great Wall has been so thoroughly and com¬ 
pletely explored before. There hardly seemed a nook or a cranny which Dr. Geil has not 
looked into. He puts before us in graphic and picturesque language the history of Chin, 
who conceived the idea of the Wall ; he tells us in a manner which almost persuades us we 
are reading a romance how the great Chin gathered his army of men to fight and work. Dr. 
Geil has given us a vitally interesting book .”—Daily Graphic.

stepping steed of romance In double harness. Vivid as they are, her tales are true metal and 
have an infinite charm.”— Observer.
