"ROLL0 ON THE ATLANTIC"

BEAUTIFULLY illustrated with original designs.
ID By Jacob Abbott.
Rollo on the Atlantic is the first book of n So
riss to be published under the general title of Roos
Tour in Europe.
Extract from the Preface:
"The books are intended to bo books of instruc-
ton, rather than Of mere amusement and, in peru
sing them the reader may feel assured that all the in
formation which they contain, not only in respect to
the countries visited and TO the customs usages and
modes of life that described but also in regard to
tho general character Of the incidents and adventures
that the young travellers meet with IS IN most strlct
accordance with fact. The main design of the nara
tive is thus the communication of useful knowledgo
and everything which they contain, except what Is
strictly personal in relation TO the actors in the story
may be depended upon as exactly and scrupulously
true" Published by
