5. R. L. STEVENSON: MEMORIES

These twenty-five photographs from a private collection
depict R. L. S., his father, his mother, his wife, his old
nurse, his successive homes in Scotland and Samoa, the
cottage at Swanston where he spent his holidays as a boy as
well as that last resting-place on the summit of Vaea,
which the natives call the shrine of Tusitala.

MANNERS & CUSTOMS OF YE ENGLYSHE

49 drawings by Richard Doyle, with letterpress by Percival Leigh. By far
the best of Doyle's drawings were those which appeared in "Punch" under
the title of "Manners and Customs of Ye Englishe." His sense of humour
was as sturdy as his draughtsmanship was delicate and the union is
comedy exquisite.

THE SERVILE STATE

By HILAIRE BELLOC. The Servile State is a study of the tendency of
modern legislation in industrial society and particularly in England not
towards Socialism but towards the establishment of two legally separate
classes, one a small class in possession of the means of production, the
other a much larger class subjected to compulsory labour under the
guarantee of a legal sufficiency to maintain themselves. The result of
such an establishment and the forces working for and against it, as well
as the remedies are fully discussed. 234 pp. Cr. 8vo Boards, 1/- net.
