_BY THE SAME AUTHOR_

A WILTSHIRE VILLAGE

BY ALFRED WILLIAMS

“We have found it a gentle and continuous delight. To the reader it can hardly be anything but a joy to find the old village life, which perhaps he himself remembers, set down so fairly and fully, with the charge of monotony roundly dismissed and all the events and pleasures recorded.... Wonderful little descriptions. Here is a vivid portrait that will seem to many like that of an old friend--Jemmy Boulton, the carter.... We knew and loved him ever so many years ago. And it is because Mr Williams knows and loves him, as he knows and loves the woods and waters, the plants and the beasts, that he makes a country-side live for us again as it still is here and there, as it will not be anywhere for long.”--_Times._

“Here is one who has never been drawn from his allegiance to the country-side by the allurements of big cities. An extremely interesting book, concerned not only with village life, but wandering far afield to the advantage of the thoughtful reader. The beauty of his descriptions, the quiet dignity of his well-considered inclusion of details, the manner of introducing us to this ‘character’ and that, call for appreciation, and the reader closes with reluctance a fascinatingly discursive record which he has followed with genuine pleasure and unabated interest.”--_Country Life._

“He brings to bear the same observation and love of nature which are the salient features of his delightful ‘Poems.’ There is in him much quaint lore and wide knowledge of birds and animals. He has many good things to say on this subject.”--_Evening Standard._

“A book which is as charming as it is uncommon. Makes a deep appeal to the naturalist and lover of the country. Mr Williams writes of what he knows, and that fact adds a special value to his book.”--_Field._

“A faithful description of a quiet corner of rural England, so well written in strong simple English that it deserves a place of honour on the shelf where country-side books are treasured.”--_Daily Mail._

“Written from personal experience and with the closest observation. Those whose interests are centred on rural matters generally will take a keen delight in it. There is food for much reflection in this volume; and be it noted that sincerity runs like a golden thread through every page.”--_Daily Chronicle._

VILLAGES OF THE WHITE HORSE

BY ALFRED WILLIAMS

“If there were a Mr Williams in every county, how rich our libraries would be in records of real rural life! We hope Mr Williams will keep on writing as long as he has material in his collections with which to picture the kindly, stout-hearted, humorous folk of the Downside.”--_Manchester Guardian._

“This book cannot be too strongly recommended for general reading, as a charming picture, full of changing interest, of a tract of country of great native beauty, and of the people, sturdy and characterful, who inhabit a score of villages, so independent and self-centred that the mere story of their industries makes no small part of the charm of this delightful book.”--_Pall Mall Gazette._

“The author is on friendly terms with all the oldest inhabitants. He draws vivid pictures, tells many delightful stories. The book is one of great interest, and we should be glad to see others of a similar sort.”--_Athenæum._

“Especially has he been successful in his portraits of old characters with whom he has talked. He is good on farm customs, good, too, when he writes of the lore of the countryside. The whole life of the country lives in his book, which is a valuable and delightful book, and should be bought by everyone who loves the country: bought because it is emphatically a book to read many times and to special friends.”--_Observer._

“He writes with the insight, the humour, and something of the poetry of Richard Jefferies. A knowledge and a cheerful humour which are refreshing.”--_Yorkshire Post._

“We have only one quarrel with the Author of _Villages of the White Horse_: the book should have been twice as long. With a genuineness which is not inevitably behind the reviewers’ summing up, we bear testimony to its sterling qualities--its simple strength of style, its sweetness, its fine balance, its sanity of outlook, its flashes of rollicking humour, its informativeness, its warm sympathy and quick comprehension, and its unfailing gentle charm.”--_Wiltshire Advertiser._

“A series of dramatic pictures and sketches, full of life, anecdote and humour, together with charming Nature-studies. It introduces us to the people in their homes and in the field. It gives the most vivid impression of how they live, of what they think and of what they say.”--_The Academy._

COR CORDIUM

BY ALFRED WILLIAMS

“_Cor Cordium_ confirms Mr Alfred Williams’ remarkable position among writers of contemporary verse. It has all his sincerity and clear vision. We prefer his ecstatic reckless lyrics to the longer poems, in which he gives us nineteenth-century philosophy in admirable eighteenth century verse.”--_Manchester Guardian._

“Mr Alfred Williams’ position as a poet is fully established.”--_Times._

“That remarkable poet, Mr Alfred Williams, adds another triumph to his list of volumes of verse.”--_Daily Citizen._

“Mr Williams is one of those writers whose books we often pull down from their place when the town lies heavy on the heart.”--_Observer._

“Mr Williams is a simple and a genuine poet, simple because he is not tempted away into decorative effects alien from the spontaneity of his lyrical impulse, and genuine because he breathes the utmost strength of his spirit into every line and phrase. He is circumscribed neither in the concentration nor the intensity of this impulse, but in its range. The energy and feeling which quicken his expression are sufficient in themselves to create a responsiveness in the reader which registers the vicissitudes in the mood and sensibilities of the poet. That is a great quality. Mr Williams’ strength lies in the clear and exquisite treatment of a common sentiment.”--_The Nation._

“Every line is the expression of a calm, determined purpose, buoyant in its own well-measured, well-disciplined confidence.”--_Daily Chronicle._

“The serious manliness and good sense of these pieces are qualities so rare in the verse of to-day that when we find them they have a sort of exotic piquancy. There are times when Mr Williams wears with grace the mantle of the Jacobeans.”--_Spectator._

“His lyrics in strict form are often wonderful. We do not think that such lovely lyric verse can fail to give its creator a high place among the poets of to-day.”--_Poetry Review._

NATURE AND OTHER POEMS

BY ALFRED WILLIAMS

“It is seldom, even among the romantics, that we find so ecstatic a rage for nature. The purpose and sincerity of the author bear him along, and there are times when he achieves a rare beauty. He has depths yet unplumbed to draw from.”--_Times._

“The expression of a mystical exaltation of spirit. Truth and sincerity are the impulse of Mr Williams’ poems.”--_Edinburgh Review._

“A rare blend of Goth and Latin.”--_English Review._

“Mr Williams’ work has the passionate throbbing purity of the later Richard Jefferies.”--_Bookman._

“Mr Williams’ work has a splendid detachment and a splendid essentiality. It is pure rapture.”--_Academy._

“The poems have the fragrance and simplicity that come from a strong, sincere mind. To read them is to be refreshed.”--_Observer._

“There is movement, joy of life, strenuous bliss of existence throughout the book; it is a real and rare pleasure to read.”--_Poetry Review._

“The work, which recalls Cowper, is delightful.”--_Athenæum._

“Written in glowing strains of rare quality.”--_Publishers’ Circular._

“Mr Williams is a poet of a school uncommon in these days. His robust and shapely verse is a counterpart of his wholesome philosophy of life.”--_Spectator._

“Those who read the other books of this man, who has triumphed over circumstances so remarkably, will know that pleasure awaits them on every page.”--_Outlook._

“Works of high merit. Remarkable human documents.”--_Swindon Advertiser._

“Mr Williams is a singer whom we should place very high.”--_Literary Monthly._

MASTERS OF PAINTING

_With many illustrations in photogravure._

A series which gives in each volume a large number of examples reproduced in _photogravure_ of the works of its subject. The first series of books on art issued at a popular price to use this beautiful method of reproduction.

The letterpress is the same as the volumes in the Popular Library of Art, but it is reset, the size of the volumes being 8¾ ins. by 5¾ ins. There are no less than 32 plates in each book. Bound in cloth with gold on side, gold lettering on back: picture wrapper, 5_s._ _net_ a volume, postage 5_d._

This is the first time that a number of _photogravure_ illustrations have been given in a series published at a popular price. The process having been very costly has been reserved for expensive volumes or restricted to perhaps a frontispiece in the case of books issued at a moderate price. A new departure in the art of printing has recently been made with the machining of photogravures; the wonderfully clear detail and beautifully soft effect of the photogravure reproductions being obtained as effectively as by the old method. It is this great advance in the printing of illustrations which makes it possible to produce this series.

The volumes are designed to give as much value as possible, and for the time being are the last word in popular book production.

It would be difficult to conceive of more concise, suggestive, and helpful volumes than these. All who read them will be aware of a sensible increase in their knowledge and appreciation of art and the world’s masterpieces.

The six volumes are:

RAPHAEL. By Julia Cartwright.

BOTTICELLI. By Julia Cartwright.

G. F. WATTS. By G. K. Chesterton.

LEONARDO DA VINCI. By Georg Gronau.

HOLBEIN. By Ford Madox Hueffer.

ROSSETTI. By Ford Madox Hueffer.

THE CROWN LIBRARY

They are particularly acceptable as prize volumes for advanced students. Demy 8vo, size 9 in. by 5¾ in. _Cloth gilt, gilt top. 7s. 6d. net. Postage 6d._
