_15s. net_

_PRIVATE AND INTIMATE_

This book follows the lines of the author's works on Egypt and India,
consisting mainly of a private diary of a very intimate kind, and will
bring down his narrative of events to the end of 1885.

The present volume is designed especially as an answer to Lord Cromer's
_Modern Egypt_, in so far as it concerned Gordon, and contains several
important and hitherto unpublished documents throwing new light upon a
case of perennial interest.

It also includes an account of the author's relations with Lord Randolph
Churchill, Sir Henry Drummond Wolff, Mr Gladstone, Mr Parnell, and other
political personages of the day, as well as of the General Election of
1885, in which the author stood as a Tory Home Ruler.

originality and his masterly deductions, has surpassed all other writers
who have written on the same subject.

Mr Eden Phillpotts writes of the Author: "The things seen are brilliantly
set down. He writes with great force and skill."

The cry for something new in literature, the indefinable, the unexpected,
has been answered. Prince Azreel comes to claim his place, not as one who
has sounded the depths and shoals of the current modes of the day, but as
one entirely careless of these things, discoursing freely of life, easily
throughout its whole purport and scope.

The Devil comes into the action, but he also is new--rather the Spirit of
the World, "man's elder brother." His methods are those neither of _Faust_
nor of _Paradise Regained_. His temptations are suasive, his lures less
material.

In the search for the Ideal of statesmanship Azreel and the Devil come to
our own Parliament, Azreel filled with warm enthusiasm, high conceptions.
They see, they learn; they discover "types," and discuss them. We find the
Devil at length defending the Commons, supplying the corre
