Oxford._"--SATURDAY REVIEW.

Story. Crown 8vo. 7_s._ 6_d._

"_Lady Barker is endowed with a rare and delicate gift for
narrating stories,--she has the faculty of throwing even into her
printed narrative a soft and pleasant tone, which goes far to make
the reader think the subject or the matter immaterial, so long as
the author will go on telling stories for his benefit._"--ATHENÆUM.

ages, and by boys too._"--TIMES.

SYBIL'S BOOK. Illustrated by S. E. WALLER. Second Edition. Globe 8vo.
gilt. 4_s._ 6_d._

"_Another of Lady Barker's delightful stories, and one of the most
thoroughly original books for girls that has been written for many
years. Grown-up readers will like it quite as much as young people,
and will even better understand the rarity of such simple, natural,
and unaffected writing.... That no one can read the story without
interest is not its highest praise, for no one ought to be able to
lay it down without being the better girl or boy, or man or woman,
for the reading of it. Lady Barker has never turned her fertile and
fascinating pen to better account, and for the sake of all readers
we wish 'Sybil's Book' a wide success."_--TIMES.

10_s._ 6_d._

"_The book is a really charming description of a thousand English
landscapes and of the emergencies and the fun and the delight
of a picnic journey through them by a party determined to enjoy
themselves, and as well matched as the pair of horses which drew
the phaeton they sat in. The real charm and purpose of the book
is its open-air life among hills and dales._"--TIMES. "_The great
charm of Mr. Black's book is that there is nothing hackneyed about
it, nothing overdrawn,--all is bright and lifelike._"--MORNING POST.

A PRINCESS OF THULE. Three vols. Sixth and cheaper Edition. Crown
8vo. 6_s._

The SATURDAY REVIEW says:--"_A novel which is both romantic and
natural, which has much feeling, without any touch of mawkishness,
which goes deep into character without any suggestion of painful
analysis--this is a rare gem to find amongst the débris of current
literature, and this, or nearly this, Mr. Black has given us in
the 'Princess of Thule.'_" "_It has, for one thing, the great
charm of novelty.... There is a picturesqueness in all that Mr.
Black writes, but scarcely even in the 'Adventures of a Phaeton'
are there the freshness and sweetness and perfect sense of natural
beauty we find in this last book._"--PALL MALL GAZETTE. "_A
beautiful and nearly perfect story._"--SPECTATOR.

=Culmshire Folk.=--By IGNOTUS. Three vols. Crown 8vo. 31_s._ 6_d._

"_Its sparkling pleasantness, its drollery, its shrewdness, the
charming little bits of character which frequently come in, its
easy liveliness, and a certain chattiness which, while it is never
vulgar, brings the writer very near, and makes one feel as if the
story were being told in lazy confidence in an hour of idleness by
a man who, while thoroughly good-natured, is strongly humorous, and
has an ever-present perception of the absurdities of people and
things._"--SPECTATOR.

_The TIMES of September 11th says it is_ "_A very touching story,
full of promise for the after career of the authoress. It is so
tenderly drawn, and so full of life and grace, that any attempt
to analyse or describe it falls sadly short of the original. We
will venture to say that few readers of any natural feeling or
sensibility will take up 'Marjory' without reading it through at a
sitting, and we hope we shall see more stories by the same hand._"

little love story._"

more ably and poetically handled. The author writes as a true
poet, and with the skill of a true artist. The plot of this
remarkable drama is not only well contrived, but worked out with
a degree of simplicity and truthful vigour altogether unusual in
modern poetry. In fact, since the date of Byron's 'Cain,' we can
scarcely recall any verse at once so terse, so powerful, and so
masterly._"--STANDARD.
