Fields, 
By ERIC PARKER 
(Author of “Eton in the Eighties, 55 “The Sinner and the Problem, 55 
“Promise of Arden, 55 “An Angler’s Garland, 55 etc.) 
This admirable book, which has been some years in preparation and 
has been eagerly awaited by a wide literary circle, is undoubtedly the 
finest story of English School life that has appeared since Tom Brown's 
School Bays . Mr. Parker was for six years at Eton, and in this novel, 
dealing with our greatest public school, he adds to the reputation which 
he gained by his previous studies of boyhood. The intimate description 
of life at a preparatory school will also strike many a chord in the breasts 
of all men who read the book; whilst the part played in the upbringing 
of her boy by the mother will endear it to all who have boys at school.

The Secret Societies of Ireland : 
Their Rise and Progress, 
By Captain H. B. C. POLLARD 
(Author of “ The Book of The Pistol, 55 “Automatic Pistols, 55 etc.) 
A most interesting book on the mysterious Secret Societies of Ireland 
and their influence on her political and social development. Captain 
Pollard has had access to a mass of information concerning them (their 
number, activities, and extent are undreamt of by most of us) both in 
Ireland and in America. It is likely to remain the standard work, not 
only upon the Irish Republican Brotherhood, but upon the whole subject, 
for it makes clear much that has been obscure both in Irish history and 
contemporary events.
