A History and Description of Chinese Porcelain. By Cosmo Monkhonse.

With Notes by S. W. Bushell. (Cassell and Co. 30s.)—This is a book for the enthusiast and collector. It is technical and tells of glazes and sang tie bceuf, but the ordinary person, if ho cares for china, cannot fail to enjoy the illustra- tions, many of which are in colours. The definite hues of coloured. china are among the things which the three-colour process succeeds in. Besides an historical review at the beginning, there is a large amount of detailed information. The catalogue of the Burlington Fine Arts Club Exhibition of 1895 is made use of.
