The Ronson Forum and the Palatine. By Horace Marnechi. (Bernard

Quaritch. 55. net.)—In this volume we have a most useful conspectus of the discoveries made up to a quite recent date in the regions mentioned in the title. The illustrations comprise plans, photographs of scenes, statues, busts, Sic. Inscriptions are given where they are appropriate. Christian antiquities are included in the scheme of contents. Altogether, the volume is one of very considerable interest and value. The spelling, punctuation, and style generally would have been improved by a careful supervision by an English reader.
