Every former Volume is equally interesting and various halts
contents, and the series of six volumes contains nearly 40 different
Voyages and Travels, most of them performed within the last two
or three years, and not to be met with any where cLe is the Eng-
lish language.
As it ts the sole object of books of Voyages and Travels to, de-
scribe the state of the countries visited, it is almost too obvious to
be formally maintained, that recent and contemporary works tf
this description are the only Voyages and Travels worthy of 'st-
rum] old and obsolete works serving only as a romance or nary.
rive of adventures, and being totally useless as to the essential
oblects of all such publications.'
The present series exhibiting the actual eotontion of serrly
the countries in the world,Turnisked by those who have reeen.ly
visited them, claims theta >re, a preference over all, conceder
consisting of obsolete works,whichnesenle nothingbut the ancient
and former state of countries.
