A cheap reprint which will be read with interest in

these days of dissolution and reconstruction M Mr.-John Buchan's A Lodys in its Wilderness (T. Nelson and Sons, ls. 3d. net), in which a party of clever tourists in East Africa discuss Imperial and domestic policy from various standpoints. The book, first published in 1906, shows that we have moved in some directions, but the main ideas are as fresh as ever. Other reprints in the series, at the same price, are A New Utopia, by Mr. If. G. Wells ; From a Colleye Window, by Mr. A. C. Benson ; and The Great Boer War, by Sir A. Conan Doyle.
