Teneriffe and its Six Satellites. By Olivia M. Stone. (Marcus

Ward and Co.)—This is a revised edition of a book of travel which was published some four or five years ago. The author was a pioneer, so to speak, in opening the Canary Islands to English travellers,—though, of course, Teneriffe itself has always been fairly well known. She complains in her preface that visitors who came after her have ventured on the strength of a partial knowledge to controvert her statements. Accordingly, this edition is intended to correct these errors, and at the same time to bring down exact information to the present time. The author has anyhow the satisfaction of knowing that she has increased the sum of human happiness by causing experiences of voyage that used to be distressing to be now fairly agreeable.
