We have received from Messrs. Bartholomew and Co. a copy
of their map of North-East France, Belgium, and the .Rhine (3s. net on cloth, and 2s. net on paper). This is the best map of the western war area upon a moderate scale (sixteen miles to the inch) that we have seen. The contours are given in colour, and the roads are plainly marked, as well as railways, fortresses, and frontiers. The map extends as far as Belfort on the south, Paris on the west, Antwerp on the north, and Frankfort on the east ; it is therefore likely to be some time before the campaign extends beyond its confines. —The Clarendon Press has published a large wall-map of The European Seat of War (15s. net), in two sheets mounted on cloth. The scale is sixteen miles to one inch. Only the leading towns are shown, and the absence of crowding names allows the physical details to stand out conspicuously.—Messrs Stanford's War Mau No. S includes The Seat of War in Eastern Europe (5s.), on a scale of eighteen miles to one inch.
