Britain's Boll of Glory. By D. H. Parry. (Cassell and

Co.)— We have nothing but praise for these stories, which recall to us many famous fields and heroic acts which have earned the Victoria Cross. All the narratives are clearly and vigorously told ; and though we have plenty of enthusiastic words, boys will not find that there is too much waste of breath. This is a long roll of deeds that will always bear repetition, and every boy should have it, if he has not already got some similar book wherewith to refresh his memory of military renown.
