Philips' Handy Administrative Atlas of Ireland. Edited by George Philip.

(G. Philip and Son. 35. net.)—The word "administrative" in the title of this volume, and of its com- panion, Handy Administrative Atlas of Scotland (3s. net), is to be emphasised. The editor tells us that the actual divisions of the two countries, as they exist for purposes of local government and Parliamentary representation, are given for the first time. The volumes ASO small octavos, containing respectively thirty-eight and thirty-seven maps, with tables and full indexes, all of the excellence which we should expect from the editor and publishers.
