The Hudson River from Ocean to Source. By Edgar Mayhew

Bacon. (G. P. Putnam's Sons. 18s. net.)—This is a handsome volume, not unworthy of the great river with whose history, legends, and scenery it is concerned. It is illustrated by an ex- cellent map, in five sections, which shows the course of the stream, the towns, &c., on its banks from New York up to the junction of the Mohawk River and Saratoga. It is a book to which only one acquainted with the region can do justice ; but the style and general appearance and execution of the book every one can appreciate.
