NEW BOOK BY REV. JACOB ABBOTT.
.ROLLO ON THE ATLANTIC"

BEAUTIFULLY illustrated with original designs
ID By Jacob Abbott.
Rollo on tho Atlantic is the first book of u SO
res to be published under the general title Of Rollos
Tour in Europe.
Extract from the Preface:
"Thc books are intended to be books Of instruc-
lion, 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
the general character of the incidents and adventures
that the young travellers meet with is in most strict
accordance with fact The main design of the
tive is thus the communication Of useful knowledge
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
