The Sketch-Book.

BY WASHINGTON IRVING.

One volume, square octavo.

Illustrated with a series of highly-finished Engravings on wood, from
Designs by Darley and others, engraved in the best style by Childs,
Herrick, &c. This edition will be printed on paper of the finest
quality, similar in size and style to the new edition of "Halleck's
Poems." It is intended that the illustrations shall be superior to any
engravings on wood yet produced in this country, and that the mechanical
execution of the volume, altogether, shall be worthy of the author's
reputation. It will form an elegant and appropriate gift-book for all
seasons.

The Illustrated Knickerbocker,

With a series of Original Designs, in one vol., octavo, is also in
preparation.

Mr. Putnam has also the honor to announce that he will publish at
intervals (in connexion, and uniform with the other collected writings),

_Mr. Irving's New Works_,

now nearly ready for the press: including

The Life of Mohammed; The Life of Washington; new volumes of
Miscellanies, Biographies, &c.

Irving's works, either in this country or in Europe, the
publisher confidently believes that the undertaking will meet
with a prompt and cordial response. To say this, is perhaps
superfluous and impertinent; for it is a truism that no
_American_ book-case (not to say _library_) can be well filled
without the works of Washington Irving; while the English
language itself comprises no purer models of composition.

G. P. Putnam has also made arrangements for the early commencement of
new works or new editions of the works of

_Miss C. M.
