EASTERN PILGRIMS : THE TRAVELS OF
THREE LADIES. By AGNES SMITH.
" A charming work, which will introduce the authoress at
once as one of the foremost describers of Eastern scenes and
customs. In some respects we regard her sketches as among
the most instinctive and impressive of any we have ever read.
A vein of novelty runs through Miss Smith's delightful volume."--

"The volume perfectly fulfils its purp
and contains in a small space a great quantity of very interesting
mattes-, much of which will be novel, and all of which will be
useful, not only to those who visit the places described, but to
those who stay at home. Mr. Spender is an acute observer, a
most industrious and judicious collector of facts, and an eloquent
and graphic writer, and does ample justice to his subjects."—

" It deserves a welcome, this book we have so long

" Fjord, Isle, and Tor' is a very delightful little book. The
essay on Norway is particularly full of information, but the
others are not far behind it in proportion to their length, and
are written in a genial spirit."—Globe.
" Without being exactly a guide-book, it answers all the pur-
poses of one, and contains beside a vast quantity of information,
all given in the most condensed form possible. There is not a
line of space wasted in fine writing, but the descriptionstion of scenery
bear witness to the author's genuine love and apprecia of the
picturesque, just as his closely compressed facts and statements
prove the practical and hardworking man of letters."—Man-
chester Courier.
" From back to back Fjord, Isle, and Tor' is full of matter
interesting equally to the tourist and the ordinary reader. It is
written in an easy and pleasant style, and is well got up.' "
Eastern Morning News.
" We cannot part with this fascinating little work without con-
gratulating Mr. Spender upon it. Addressed, as it more especially
is, to travellers in Norway, the Channel Islands, and Cornwall,
it is, nevertheless, a book that will afford the keenest gratifica-
tion to the general public. . . . As to its literary merits we
need say nothing, the name of the author being sufficient
guarantee on this point."—Western Mail.
" The articles shew unusual power of observation, are full
of genial gossip, and supply just what the excursionist wants—
reliable information."—Western Daily Press.
