Annual Subscription.--One and a-half Guinea (in America, eight dollars).

The Hakluyt Society, established in 1846, has for its object the printing of rare and valuable Voyages, Travels, Naval Expeditions, and other geographical records. Books of this class are of the highest interest to students of history, geography, navigation, and ethnology; and many of them, especially the original narratives and translations of the Elizabethan and Stuart periods, are admirable examples of English prose at the stage of its most robust development.

The Society has not confined its selection to the books of English travellers, to a particular age, or to particular regions. Where the original is foreign, the work is given in English, fresh translations being made, except where it is possible to utilise the spirited renderings of the sixteenth or seventeenth century. The works selected for reproduction are printed (with rare exceptions) at full length. Each volume is placed in the charge of an editor especially competent--in many cases from personal acquaintance with the countries described--to give the reader such assistance as he needs for the elucidation of the text. As these editorial services are rendered gratuitously, _the whole of the amount received from subscribers is expended in the preparation of the Society’s publications_.

One hundred volumes (forming Series I., see pages iv. to xiv.) were issued from 1846 to 1898; thirty volumes of Series II. (see pages xv. to xvii.) have been issued in the fourteen years ending 1912. A brief index to these is given on pages xix. to xxiv., and a list of works in preparation on page xviii.

The Annual Subscription of ONE AND A-HALF GUINEA--entitling the member to the year’s publications--is due on January 1, and may be paid to

Messrs. BARCLAY and CO., 1, Pall Mall East, London, S.W.;

The MORTON TRUST CO., 38, Nassau Street, New York; or to

Messrs. ASHER and CO., 56, Unter den Linden, Berlin.
