Mysterious Morocco. By H. J. B. Ward, B.A. (Simpkin, Marshall,

and Co. 2s. 6d.)—This is one of the "Travellers' Vade Mecum Series of Handbooks." It tells the traveller what he will see, and what he should look for. It gives information about the people generally, about their way of living, their clothes, their food—as in an admirable description of a Moroccan dinner—their music. The chief places are described ; and there is a sketch of Moorish history. Altogether, this is a pleasant little volume, written, it would seem, by a writer who is well acquainted with his subject, and it is easily carried.
