MR. PALGRAVE'S TRAVELS IN ARABIA.

Arabia.'-ATHENEUM.

Two Vols. 8vo, cloth, with a Portrait of the Author, Map, and Plans illustrating the Route, price 28s.

A NARRATIVE OF A YEAR'S JOURNEY THROUGH

CENTRAL AND EASTERN ARABIA, 1862-3. By WILLIAM GIFFORD PALGRAVE, late of the 8th Regiment Bombay N.I.

A stirring tale of adventure in an absolutely new and virgin country, hitherto unvisited, except under conditions which reduced the traveller to the category of a mere senseless corpse in a coffin. He told his tale, too, more as Herodotus would have recited at Olympia, than like a commonplace voyager of the nineteenth century. He spoke with all the spirit and picturesqueness of the old Greek, com bined with the careful eloquence of a trained orator,

and his crowded audience admired and applauded the accomplishments of the speaker, no less than they appreciated the interest of the primeval Eastern country thus brought before their eyes.' Quarterly Review, on Mr. Palgrave's Paper, read before the Royal Geographical Society.

This is incomparably the best book of travelsand, we are almost inclined to add, the best book of any kind-produced this year.'-Spectator.

A book which is genuine from the first page to the last, and whose only fault is its shortness.'Glasgow Daily Herald.
