PRINCE AZREEL. By ARTHUR LYNCH, M.A., M.P. Crown 8vo. 5s. net. The cry for
something new in literature, the indefinable, the unexpected, has been
answered.

MORE PEERS. Verses by HILAIRE BELLOC. Pictures by B.T.B. Price 2s. 6d.
net. "There is a laugh in every line of the verses and
illustrations."--_Daily Express._ "Those who have not already tasted the
peculiar humour which these collaborators imported into 'Cautionary Tales
for Children' and the 'Bad Child's Book of Beasts,' should by all means
study the life-history of various peers as recorded in these brief
verses."--_Times._

AN ENGLISHMAN IN NEW YORK. By JUVENAL. Crown 8vo. 5s. net. Notes and

play is that rarity, an English drama of ideas which is not in any sense

SIR EDWARD: A Brief Memorial of a Noble Life. By a Fellow of the Literary

is irresistible. Sir Edward is not a caricature but a symbol; a
materialisation into one grotesque shape of the drifting ideas and false
ideals of a muddled civilisation.

THE VALLEY OF SHADOWS. By FRANCIS GRIERSON. Crown 8vo. 6s. net. "Told with
wonderful charm ... enthralling as any romance.... Truth, though often
