WAS Bosse.—The third volume has now been published of Nelson's
History of the War, by Mr. John Buchan (T. Nelson and Sons, ls. net). It carries the narrative of the Western campaign from the battle of the Aisne to the fall of Antwerp, and in the Eastern campaign describes the first Russian advance upon Cracow, which occurred in the latter part of September. There are also chapters dealing with the naval operations and with the events which took place in various parts of Africa during the same period. The same high standard is maintained aa in the earlier volumes.—News- paper readers will remember The French Official Review of the First Sim Months of the War which was issued to the Press some weeks ago through Renter's Agency. This has now been reprinted in book form (Constable and Co., Is. net).— Another interesting reprint is Eyewitness's Narrative of the War (Edward Arnold, Is. net). This contains the complete series of accounts issued by the Press Bureau from "an Eye- witness present with General Headquarters" from September till the end of March.
