⁂ “Extracts might be multiplied indefinitely, but we have given

MEMOIRS OF THE COURT OF ENGLAND IN 1675. By MARIE CATHERINE COMTESSE D’AULNOY. Translated from the original French by Mrs. WILLIAM HENRY ARTHUR. Edited, Revised, and with Annotations (including an account of Lucy Walter) by GEORGE DAVID GILBERT. With Illustrations. Demy 8vo. 21s. net.

⁂ When the Comte de Gramont went back to France and Mr. Pepys
decided that to save his eyesight it was essential that he should
suspend his Diary, the records of delectable gossip of the ever
interesting Restoration Court became, of necessity, sadly
curtailed. Indeed, of the second decade of the Golden Days the
sedate Evelyn has hitherto been almost the only source of
information available to the public. Though the Memoirs of the
Countess d’Aulnoy have always been known to students, they have
never received the respect they undoubtedly merit, for until Mr.
Gilbert, whose hobby is the social history of this period, took the
matter in hand, no-one had succeeded in either deciphering the
identity of the leading characters of the Memoirs or of verifying
the statements made therein. To achieve this has been for some
years his labour of love and an unique contribution to Court and
Domestic history is the crown of his labours. The Memoirs, which
have only to be known to rank with the sparkling “Comte de Gramont”
(which they much resemble), contain amusing anecdotes and vivid
portraits of King Charles II., his son the Duke of Monmouth, Prince
Rupert, Buckingham, and other ruffling “Hectors” of those romantic
days. Among the ladies we notice the Queen, the Duchess of Norfolk
and Richmond, and the lively and vivacious Maids of Honour. The new
Nell Gwynn matter is of particular interest. The Memoirs are fully
illustrated with portraits, not reproduced before, from the
collection of the Duke of Portland and others.

AUSTRIA: HER PEOPLE AND THEIR HOMELANDS. By JAMES BAKER, F.R.G.S. With 48 Pictures in Colour by DONALD MAXWELL. Demy 8vo. 21s. net.

⁂ The Empire of Austria with its strangely diversified population
of many tongues is but little known to English readers. The Capital
and a few famous interesting places, such as Carlsbad, Marienbad,
the glorious Tyrol, and such cities as Golden Prague and Innsbruck
are known to the English and Americans; but the remarkable scenery
of the Upper Elbe, the Ultava or Moldau and the Danube, the
interesting peasantry in their brilliant costumes, the wild
mountain gorges, are quite outside the ken of the ordinary
traveller. The volume is written by one who since 1873 has
continually visited various parts of the Empire and has already
written much upon Austria and her people. Mr. Baker was lately
decorated by the Emperor Francis Joseph for his literary work and
was also voted the Great Silver Medal by the Prague Senate. The
volume is illustrated with 48 beautiful water-colour pictures by
Mr. Donald Maxwell, the well-known artist of the _Graphic_, who has
made several journeys to Austria for studies for this volume.

TAPESTRIES: THEIR ORIGIN, HISTORY, AND RENAISSANCE. By GEORGE LELAND HUNTER. With four full-page Plates in Colour, and 147 Half-tone Engravings. Square 8vo. Cloth. 16s. net.

⁂ This is a fascinating book on a fascinating subject. It is
written by a scholar whose passion for accuracy and original
research did not prevent him from making a story easy to read. It
answers the questions people are always asking as to how tapestries
differ from paintings, and good tapestries from bad tapestries. It
will interest lovers of paintings and rugs and history and fiction,
for it shows how tapestries compare with paintings in picture
interest, with rugs in texture interest, and with historic and
other novels in romantic interest; presenting on a magnificent
scale the stories of the Iliad and the Odyssey, the Æneid and the
Metamorphoses, the Bible and the Saints, Ancient and Medieval
History and Romance. In a word, the book is indispensable to lovers
of art and literature in general, as well as to tapestry amateurs,
owners and dealers.

FROM STUDIO TO STAGE. By WEEDON GROSSMITH. With 32 full-page Illustrations. Demy 8vo. 16s. net.

⁂ Justly famous as a comedian of unique gifts, Mr. Weedon Grossmith
is nevertheless an extremely versatile personality, whose interests
are by no means confined to the theatre. These qualities have
enabled him to write a most entertaining book. He gives an
interesting account of his early ambitions and exploits as an
artist, which career he abandoned for that of an actor. He goes on
to describe some of his most notable _rôles_, and lets us in to
little intimate glimpses “behind the scenes,” chats pleasantly
about all manner of celebrities in the land of Bohemia and out of
it, tells many amusing anecdotes, and like a true comedian is not
bashful when the laugh is against himself. The book is well
supplied with interesting illustrations, some of them reproductions
of the author’s own work.

FANNY BURNEY AT THE COURT OF QUEEN CHARLOTTE. By CONSTANCE HILL. Author of “The House in St. Martin Street,” “Juniper Hall,” etc. With numerous Illustrations by ELLEN G. HILL and reproductions of contemporary Portraits, etc. Demy 8vo. 16s. net.

⁂ This book deals with the Court life of Fanny Burney covering the
years 1786-91, and therefore forms a link between the two former
works on Fanny Burney by the same writer, viz. “The House in St.
Martin Street,” and “Juniper Hall.” The writer has been fortunate
in obtaining much unpublished material from members of the Burney
family as well as interesting contemporary portraits and relics.
The scene of action in this work is constantly shifting--now at
Windsor, now at Kew, now sea-girt at Weymouth, and now in London;
and the figures that pass before our eyes are endowed with a
marvellous vitality by the pen of Fanny Burney. When the court was
at St. James’s the Keeper of the Robes had opportunities of
visiting her own family in St. Martin Street, and also of meeting
at the house of her friend Mrs. Ord “everything delectable in the
blue way.” Thither Horace Walpole would come in all haste from
Strawberry Hill for the sole pleasure of spending an evening in her
society. After such a meeting Fanny writes--“he was in high
spirits, polite, ingenious, entertaining, quaint and original.” A
striking account of the King’s illness in the winter of 1788-9 is
given, followed by the widespread rejoicings for his recovery; when
London was ablaze with illuminations that extended for many miles
around, and when “even the humblest dwelling exhibited its
rush-light.” The author and the illustrator of this work have
visited the various places, where King George and Queen Charlotte
stayed when accompanied by Fanny Burney. Among these are Oxford,
Cheltenham, Worcester, Weymouth and Dorchester; where sketches have
been made, or old prints discovered, illustrative of those towns in
the late 18th century savours of Georgian days. There the national
flag may still be seen as it appeared before the union.

MEMORIES OF SIXTY YEARS AT ETON, CAMBRIDGE AND ELSEWHERE. By OSCAR BROWNING. Illustrated. Demy 8vo. 14s. net.

THE STORY OF DON JOHN OF AUSTRIA. By PADRE LUIS COLOMA, S.J., of the Real Academia Española. Translated by LADY MORETON. With Illustrations. Demy 8vo. 16s. net.

⁂ “A new type of book, half novel and half history,” as it is very
aptly called in a discourse delivered on the occasion of Padre
Coloma’s election to the Academia de España, the story of the
heroic son of Charles V. is retold by one of Spain’s greatest
living writers with a vividness and charm all his own. The
childhood of Jeromin, afterwards Don John of Austria reads like a
mysterious romance. His meteoric career is traced through the
remaining chapters of the book; first as the attractive youth; the
cynosure of all eyes that were bright and gay at the court of
Philip II., which Padre Coloma maintains was less austere than is
usually supposed; then as conqueror of the Moors, culminating as
the “man from God” who saved Europe from the terrible peril of a
Turkish dominion; triumphs in Tunis; glimpses of life in the luxury
loving Italy of the day; then the sad story of the war in the
Netherlands, when our hero, victim of an infamous conspiracy, is
left to die of a broken heart; his end hastened by fever, and,
maybe, by the “broth of Doctor Ramirez.” Perhaps more fully than
ever before is laid bare the intrigue which led to the cruel death
of the secretary, Escovedo, including the dramatic interview
between Philip II. and Antonio Perez, in the lumber room of the
Escorial. A minute account of the celebrated _auto da fe_ in
Valladolid cannot fail to arrest attention, nor will the details of
several of the imposing ceremonies of Old Spain be less welcome
than those of more intimate festivities in the Madrid of the
sixteenth century, or of everyday life in a Spanish castle.

⁂ “This book has all the fascination of a vigorous _roman à
clef_... the translation is vigorous and idiomatic.”--_Mr. Owen
Edwards in Morning Post._

THIRTEEN YEARS OF A BUSY WOMAN’S LIFE. By Mrs. ALEC TWEEDIE. With Nineteen Illustrations. Demy 8vo. 16s. net. Third Edition.

⁂ It is a novel idea for an author to give her reasons for taking
up her pen as a journalist and writer of books. This Mrs. Alec
Tweedie has done in “Thirteen Years of a Busy Woman’s Life.” She
tells a dramatic story of youthful happiness, health, wealth, and
then contrasts that life with the thirteen years of hard work that
followed the loss of her husband, her father, and her income in
quick succession in a few weeks. Mrs. Alec Tweedie’s books of
travel and biography are well-known, and have been through many
editions, even to shilling copies for the bookstalls. This is
hardly an autobiography, the author is too young for that, but it
gives romantic, and tragic peeps into the life of a woman reared in
luxury, who suddenly found herself obliged to live on a tiny income
with two small children, or work--and work hard--to retain
something of her old life and interests. It is a remarkable story
with many personal sketches of some of the best-known men and women
of the day.

⁂ “One of the gayest and sanest surveys of English society we have
read for years.”--_Pall Mall Gazette._

⁂ “A pleasant laugh from cover to cover.”--_Daily Chronicle._

THE ENGLISH AND FRENCH IN THE XVIIth CENTURY. By CHARLES BASTIDE. With Illustrations. Demy 8vo. 12_s._ 6_d._ net.

⁂ The author of this book of essays on the intercourse between
England and France in the seventeenth century has gathered much
curious and little-known information. How did the travellers
proceed from London to Paris? Did the Frenchmen who came over to
England learn, and did they ever venture to write English? An
almost unqualified admiration for everything French then prevailed:
French tailors, milliners, cooks, even fortune-tellers, as well as
writers and actresses, reigned supreme. How far did gallomania
affect the relations between the two countries? Among the
foreigners who settled in England none exercised such varied
influence as the Hugenots; students of Shakespeare and Milton can
no longer ignore the Hugenot friends of the two poets, historians
of the Commonwealth must take into account the “Nouvelles
ordinaires de Londres,” the French gazette, issued on the Puritan
side, by some enterprising refugee. Is it then possible to
determine how deeply the refugees impressed English thought? Such
are the main questions to which the book affords an answer. With
its numerous hitherto unpublished documents and illustrations,
drawn from contemporary sources, it cannot fail to interest those
to whom a most brilliant and romantic period in English history
must necessarily appeal.

THE VAN EYCKS AND THEIR ART. By W. H. JAMES WEALE, with the co-operation of MAURICE BROCKWELL. With numerous Illustrations. Demy 8vo. 12_s._ 6_d._ net.

⁂ The large book on “Hubert and John Van Eyck” which Mr. Weale
published in 1908 through Mr. John Lane was instantly recognised by
the reviewers and critics as an achievement of quite exceptional
importance. It is now felt that the time has come for a revised and
slightly abridged edition of that which was issued four years ago
at £5 5s. net. The text has been compressed in some places and
extended in others, while certain emendations have been made, and
after due reflection, the plan of the book has been materially
recast. This renders it of greater assistance to the student.

The large amount of research work and methodical preparation of a
revised text obliged Mr. Weale, through failing health and
eyesight, to avail himself of the services of Mr. Brockwell, and
Mr. Weale gives it as his opinion in the new Foreword that he
doubts whether he could have found a more able collaborator than
Mr. Brockwell to edit this volume.

“The Van Eycks and their Art,” so far from being a mere reprint at
a popular price of “Hubert and John Van Eyck,” contains several new
features, notable among which are the inclusion of an Appendix
giving details of all the sales at public auction in any country
from 1662 to 1912 of pictures _reputed_ to be by the Van Eycks. An
entirely new and ample Index has been compiled, while the
bibliography, which extends over many pages, and the various
component parts of the book have been brought abreast of the most
recent criticism. Detailed arguments are given for the first time
of a picture attributed to one of the brothers Van Eyck in a
private collection in Russia.

In conclusion it must be pointed out that Mr. Weale has, with
characteristic care, read through the proofs and passed the whole
book for press.
