TICKNOR AND COMPANY'S
NEW BOOKS
Published during the autumn and winter of
1886-1887.
_The Prices named below are subject to Revision on Publication._
#FORCED ACQUAINTANCES.# By EDITH ROBINSON. 12mo. $1.50.
A famous American author writes that this is "a very amusing and well-told story, original and infinitely amusing. The differences in character and temperament, the thousand and one little situations that are derived from these differences, are very cleverly delineated. The elaboration of the narrative, which winds along through the household duties and the neighbors' peculiarities, is something after the style of Miss Austen."
#THE LIFE AND WORKS OF GIORDANO BRUNO.# A new volume of the English and Foreign Philosophical Library. 408 pages. 8vo. With portrait. $4.50.
#FAMILIAR SHORT SAYINGS OF GREAT MEN.# By S. ARTHUR BENT, A. M. Fifth edition, revised and enlarged. 12mo. Vellum cloth. $2.00.
Indispensable to students, writers, and libraries. It gives a collection of short, sententious sayings of all times, such as are constantly referred to, but are not to be found in other books of reference. A short sketch of each speaker, and the circumstances attending each remark, is also given. This new edition has been thoroughly revised and corrected throughout, with new indexes and tables of authors, and the addition of over fifty pages, bringing the work down to the latest time, and quoting eighty authors not before included, and containing over three hundred new sayings from Agassiz, Choate, President Cleveland, Emerson, Evarts, Carlyle, Gladstone, Wellington, Parnell, etc.
#THE COURSE OF EMPIRE.# Being Outlines of the Chief Political Changes in the History of the World. Arranged by Centuries, with variorum illustrations, by C. G. WHEELER. With 25 maps. 1 vol. 12mo. $2.00.
A very valuable historical work, which should be kept in every library for reference and for the vigor of its delineations of the great historic epochs.
#FAMILIAR ALLUSIONS.# A Handbook of Miscellaneous Information, including the names of Celebrated Statues, Paintings, Palaces, Country Seats, Ruins, Churches, Ships, Streets, Clubs, Natural Curiosities, and the like. By WILLIAM A. WHEELER and CHARLES G. WHEELER. 1 vol. 12mo. $2.00.
#EVENTS AND EPOCHS IN RELIGIOUS HISTORY.# By JAMES FREEMAN CLARKE, D.D. Illustrated. 12mo. $2.00.
The Catacombs, as Cemeteries and as Martyrs' Retreats; The Buddhist Monks of Central Asia; The Christian Monks; Augustine, Anselm, Bernard; Jeanne d'Arc's Visions, Victories, and Death; Savonarola and the Renaissance; Luther; Loyola; The Mystics--Neo-Platonists, German Pietists, Fenelon, Swedenborg, Emerson; George Fox; The Huguenots, Waldenses, Albigenses; John Wesley; The Moravians and Methodists.
#SONS AND DAUGHTERS.# By the author of "The Story of Margaret Kent." 12mo. $1.50.
An eminent Boston critic writes: "This should be THE novel of the season. The lively fancy of the author touches lightly and wittily upon several of the popular interests of the day, such as Shakespeare societies, the Browning craze, mind cure, etc., and from titlepage to finis there is not a dull paragraph. So brilliant and entertaining a story as 'Sons and Daughters' is not often met with, and it should have, as it deserves, the widest reading."
The remarkable popularity and great sales which made "Margaret Kent" one of the foremost books of the last year (or of the last decade) seem likely to be repeated in this new novel by the same author. It sparkles with the real life and deep feeling, and has the same admirable social setting, that have made "Margaret Kent" a name to conjure by wherever the best of literature is known.
#HAPPY DODD.# By ROSE TERRY COOKE, author of "The Deacon's Week," etc. 12mo. $1.50.
"Happy Dodd" is a beautiful and tender novel of New-England life especially adapted for home reading, and breathing out a strengthening spirit of Christian love and heroism.
#SCOTT'S THE LAY OF THE LAST MINSTREL.# Edited, with Notes and Introduction, by W. J. ROLFE, A. M. 1 vol. 12mo. Beautifully illustrated. 75 cents.
#THE EVOLUTION OF THE SNOB.# By THOMAS SERGEANT PERRY. 16mo. $1.00.
A keen and brilliant social study, by one of the most spirited writers of Boston.
#GOETHE'S FAUST: A Commentary.# By DENTON J. SNIDER. 2 vols. 12mo. $3.50.
A learned and valuable treatise on the greatest of German poems, giving its history, critical standards, and outline, and careful analyses and explanations of all the scenes and situations, as seen from a philosophical point of view.
#SCOTT'S THE LAY OF THE LAST MINSTREL.# An entirely new edition of this famous and popular poem, from _new plates_, with nearly _one hundred_ new illustrations by leading American artists. Elegantly and appropriately bound, with full gilt edges. In box. Cloth, $6.00; padded calf, tree-calf, or antique morocco, $10.00. A few copies in crushed Levant, with silk linings, $25.00.
"The Lay of the Last Minstrel" is larger than its predecessors, the Holiday volumes published under Mr. Anthony's supervision, and its broad and handsome pages offer very favorable opportunities for the display of the illustrations, which are masterpieces of modern engraving.
The immediate and permanent success of "The Lady of the Lake," "Marmion," etc., has encouraged the publishers to bring out this not less popular and famous poem. It is produced in the same style, and with the same careful and elaborate style of illustration, regardless of cost, while Mr. Anthony's skilful supervision is sufficient guarantee that the work is elegant and tasteful as well as correct.
#THE PETERKIN PAPERS.# By LUCRETIA P. HALE. New Holiday edition, revised and enlarged, uniform with "Davy and the Goblin." Square 4to. Illustrated with a great number of new pictures. $1.50.
The continued popularity of these inimitable stories has compelled the issue of this new and enlarged edition, with new illustrations and type. "The Lady from Philadelphia," "Agamemnon," "Solomon John," and other characters of these stories have become household words in thousands of American families; and the publication of a worthy and comely edition of so delightful a classic will be hailed with joy by many old friends and new.
#MURAL PAINTING.# By FREDERIC CROWNINSHIELD. 1 vol. Square 8vo. With numerous diagrams and full-page illustrations. $3.00.
This series of papers has excited great interest and attention in "The American Architect;" and in its present enlarged and amended form, with many new illustrations, is still more valuable.
#THE VIRGINIA CAMPAIGN OF GENERAL POPE IN 1862.# Being Volume II. of Papers read before the Military Historical Society of Massachusetts. With Maps and Plans. 1 vol. 8vo. $3.00.
A careful and dispassionate account of the great retreat from the Rapidan to the Potomac, with the stories of its terrible battles, prepared by prominent military officers, and dealing with the Second Bull-Run campaign, the Fitz-John Porter affair, and other interesting matters.
#SONGS AND SATIRES.# A volume of poems. By JAMES JEFFREY ROCHE. 1 vol. 12mo. $1.00.
The range and versatility of these poems add to their other attractions, and make the volume a very popular one. Mr. Roche's _vers de societe_, printed in "Life," and other publications, are of singular delicacy and originality, and the best of them are incorporated in this volume, together with many heretofore unpublished poems.
#GENIUS IN SUNSHINE AND IN SHADOW.# By M. M. BALLOU, author of "Edge-tools of Speech." 1 vol. 12mo. $1.50.
