The Making of a Man. By the Rev. J. W.
Lee. (Hutchinson and Co.)—Mr. Lee has treated hie subject, that of Man and his relation to his surroundings, with considerable force and a wide grasp of facts and arguments. Indeed, he argues closely and well, and would have been more effective, far more lucid too, had. he adopted a less epigrammatic mode of expression, and been content to go a little slower. The book is divided into a series of chapters, each discussing the various provisions made for the Physical, Social, Intellectual, Moral, .Esthetic, and Spiritual Nature of Man, and the attributes belonging to him. Though Mr Lee has much flow of language, we fancy that sometimes her misses a subtle point, and passes over finer shades of thought. But there are many good things well said in The Making if a Man,. and vigour and freshness is never wanting in it.
