*INTRODUCTORY VOLUMES TO HARRAP'S STORY OF ENGLAND SERIES*

*THE CAVE BOY*

Of the Age of Stone. By MARGARET A. M'INTYRE.

Profusely Illustrated. 160 pp. Crown 8vo, 1s.

"The story is written simply, but it teaches a most interesting lesson in a naturally presented series of adventures which will hold the attention of a boy or girl. A short appendix explains how the ways of primitive man have been read from existing evidence; and there are practical suggestions for teachers who wish to make the most of this capital book as an introduction to a subject so suggestive along the lines, not only of social life, but of history, geography and nature study."--_Education_.

*DAYS BEFORE HISTORY*

By H. R. HALL. With numerous full-page and other Illustrations, carefully drawn from Models in the British Museum and elsewhere. 160 pp. Crown 8vo, 1s.

Professor J. J. FlNDLAY, M.A., writes in the preface:--"This story transplants the child to an epoch where men and women are themselves children--where the problems of life are the simple tasks of economic existence--food, shelter, clothing. It gives him a practical problem to achieve, to make pots for the food, to weave cloth for the tent: it gives him ideas for play, ideas that underlie all the great games in which mankind finds recreation. I heartily welcome 'Days Before History' on our children's behalf."

Professor W. BOYD DAWKINS, D.Sc., F.R.S., author of "Early Man in Britain," writes:--"The story is excellent and true to the facts. The book fills a gap in the history of Britain."

Mr J. L. PATON, M.A., High Master of the Manchester Grammar School, writes:--"I was very much pleased with it; read it every word; have already adopted it at Preparatory Schools, and it comes on next year in my own Preparatory Form at the Big School."

*CAVE, LAKE, AND MOUND DWELLERS*

By FLORENCE HOLBROOK, author of "The Hiawatha Primer," and "A Book of Nature Myths." With nearly 100 Illustrations. 140 pp. Crown 8vo, 1s.

This little book covers briefly the whole field of pre-historic life, and, while not written in story form, like "Days Before History," and "The Cave Boy," forms an interesting introduction to the subject for young readers.

HARRAP'S NEW ILLUSTRATED STORY OF ENGLAND SERIES

In 8 Volumes. Each containing some 256 pages and about 150 Original Illustrations drawn from the museums, old MSS. and other sources. The volumes are attractively printed and bound, and the aim has been to interest as well as to instruct.

Whilst devoting considerable attention to political history, a far greater space than is usual is given to the social life of the people. Chapters are devoted to life in a monastery, life in a castle, life in the towns, and sports and pastimes are adequately treated. Costume and architecture also receive considerable attention. Whenever possible old records are quoted in the original words. and family memoirs are often drawn upon in order to make the narrative more vivid.
