A Truthful Woman in Southern California. By Kate Sanborn. (Sampson

Low, Marston, and Co.)—This is a guide-book of a superior and literary kind. We do not mean that it gives details of distances, roads, conveyances, hotels, and the like, but that it is likely to be a useful companion to any one who wishes to make a similar journey. Miss Sanborn tells her readers why she went, what good she got from going, what she took with her, and generally how she fared. All this she does in a series of readable and attractive chapters.
