the leading value of Mr. Turner's present publication will be found to consist. "Turner's handsomely-printed volume is profusely illustrated with careful woodcuts of all important existing remains, made from drawings by Mr. Blore and Mr. Twopeny."--_Athenaeum._ JOHN HENRY PARKER, Oxford; and 377. Strand, London. * * * * * Now ready, price 21s. uniform with the above, THE DOMESTIC ARCHITECTURE OF THE MIDDLE AGES. Vol. II.--THE FOURTEENTH CENTURY. By the Editor of "The Glossary of Architecture." This volume is issued on the plan adopted by the late Mr. Hudson Turner in the previous volume: viz., collecting matter relating to Domestic buildings of the period, from cotemporary records, and applying the information so acquired to the existing remains. Not only does the volume contain much curious information both as to the buildings and manners and customs of the time, but it is also hoped that the large collection of careful Engravings of the finest examples will prove as serviceable to the profession and their employers in building mansions, as the Glossary was found to be in building churches. The Text is interspersed throughout with numerous woodcuts. JOHN HENRY PARKER, Oxford; and 377. Strand, London. * * * * * W. H.
