=Modern Daughters.=

Being Conversations with various American Girls and One Man. By
Alexander Black. Profusely illustrated with designs and photographs by
the Author. Royal 8vo., elegantly bound in silk cloth, with charming
cameo portrait on side, 10s. 6d. net.

'Particularly fresh and original in idea is "Modern Daughters." Mr.
Black has written some exceedingly clever conversations, which give us
verbal pictures, so to speak, of some characteristic types of American
womanhood. The chapters called "With a Gym Girl" and "With a Club Woman"
are specially successful. There is a perception and a sense of humour
about them which make them not only delightful to read, but worth
thinking about afterwards. The illustrations, which are excellent,
consist mainly of portraits which would be recognised at once by anyone
familiar with the American Society of to-day--a fact which should make
the book interesting to American women in London. The volume is well and
prettily bound, and its "get-up" is admirable. It is quite a book to
possess.'--_World_.
