For Glory and Renown. By D. H. Parry. (Cassell and

Co.)— There is plenty of action and vigour in Mr. Parry's tale of the adventures of Harry Paget in the wars of the last century. Young Paget, who has been educated in France, leaves the country of his adoption under exciting circumstances—the landing of an English expedition on the coast—and returns to England, whence he goes to fight with Wolfe in Canada, and finally, after some narrow escapes, gets back to England again. A lively story this, told with spirit, and with some good, healthy characters in it, and enough history to make it instructive as well as in- teresting to boys.
