In a new series of books on Cathedrals (Isbister and

Co., is. per vol.) we have Lichfield Cathedral, by the Rev. Canon Boding- ton, Illustrated by Holland Tringham, and Ripon Cathedral, by the Yen. Archdeacon Danks, Illustrated by Herbert Railton. The volumes are small and portable, and will be found, it is probable, to give what the average visitor requires.
