Types of the Saintly Life. By A. C. Turberville. Second
edition. (Elliot Stock.)—This collection of studies has the same popular
form, but, as delivered in "Milton Church, Huddersfield," it has a more hortatory bias. Here the types chosen are to illustrate the variety of modes in which saintliness may be shown. There ere brief biographies a Marcus Aurelius, Francis of Assisi, Savonarola, John Bunyan, Elizabeth Fry, and President Garfield. Both these books are suitable for popular libraries, or might be used by teachers of any grade as materials. Of the two, of course, the first-named is much the more literary in form and advanced in character.
