Welsh Pictures Drawn with Pen and Pencil. Edited by Richard

Lovett, M.A. With 72 illustrations. (Religious Tract Society.) —This is one of a well-known series of books in which the history and features of different countries are picturesquely treated. The different parts of the country have been allotted to Welshmen specially acquainted with them, and the work is well executed. Mr. J. E. Lloyd, to whom the historical sketch and one of the sections have been allotted, may be singled out for mention. The illustrations are none of them first-rate, and the repro- ductions of water-colours are extremely woolly. But taken for what it is, the book ought to prove a useful and readable guide to tourists in Wales.
