Overseas Visitors' Guide to London and the British Isles. By

Alwyn Pride. (Forster Groom. ls. 6d.)—This spirited little guide does not pretend to be exhaustive, but it should be very helpful to visitors from overseas who want to see as much as possible of London and to have a few hints as to country tours. It is pleasantly written and, within its limits, it is trustworthy. The mysteries of London's transit system are explained, and there are hints about shopping. The book is well illustrated.
