B., 1793-1801. By his Son JAMES LORD DUNFERMLINE.
In 1 vol. demy 8vo.

“It is peculiarly refreshing to meet with a
biography of an individual so illustrious as
Sir Ralph Abercromby, from the pen of one so
eminent in many respects as the late Lord
Dunfermline.”--_Caledonian Mercury, October 3._

“His grandson, the present Lord Dunfermline, by
causing this memoir to be printed and published,
has conferred a benefit upon all--and they are

distinguished men.”--_Literary Gazette, October 5._

H. R. H. The Prince Consort, K.G., comprising

collected on that occasion. Illustrated, royal
8vo, cloth, 21s.

Angelo Sanmartino, a Tale of Lombardy in 1859. Crown 8vo, cloth, 10s. 6d.

“A pretty story enough, and vraisemblable
enough for the effect desired to be produced
by the author, which is to awaken in the
minds of ordinary English novel readers a
lively feeling for the cause of Italian
independence.”--_Spectator, December 29._

“We admire the character of Angelo, and heartily
commend it to public favour; it is admirably
written; the subject is one dear to every lover
of freedom and honour.--_Commonwealth, December
15, 1860._

Odal Rights and Feudal Wrongs: a Memorial for Orkney.
By DAVID BALFOUR of Balfour and Trenaby. 1 vol.
8vo, price 6s.

“We gather from the book that Mr. Balfour is an
Orcadian Laird, Odaller, or whatever the proper
title may be now-a-days. Certainly he is a sound
and careful antiquary, well versed in the local
history of the old Jarldom, and fully entitled
to a hearing for anything which he may say about
it.”--_Saturday Review, March 1861._

“To antiquarians, and especially those
connected with Orkney, this book will be a rich
acquisition.--_Orkney Herald, October 23, 1860._
