GORDON AT KHARTOUM

BY WILFRED SCAWEN BLUNT

_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important and hitherto unpublished documents throwing new light upon a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.

THE PASSING OF THE AMERICAN

BY MONROE ROYCE

_Crown 8vo. Cloth. 5s. net_

_MODERN AMERICA UNVEILED_

Mr Monroe Royce is a fearless and discerning critic, and _The Passing of
the American_ is no ordinary book.

With refreshing candour the author reveals the prevailing conditions of
his own race to-day, not in the spirit of a carping cynic, but of one who
would arrest the downward trend of the national character.

Not since "Henry George" wrote _Social Problems_ has a more powerful,
brilliant, and startling presentation of the industrial, social,
political, and religious life of the American people been written--and
much of it applies with equal force to all Western civilised nations.

Sparklingly written, acutely interesting and thought-provoking, the book
is full of a truth which impresses itself upon the reader. It is probably
the keenest analysis of the modern American that has ever appeared.

BY JUVENAL

_Crown 8vo. 5s. net_

_VIVID ORIGINALITY_

In these notes and studies on life in New York, Juvenal, by his vivid
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."
