Abstract
THE latest volume of this convenient encyclopædia maintains the high standard of the work. The articles have been revised or re-written, and many new articles, have been added. References to books published within the last few months are not infrequently included. There is a liberal allowance of excellent coloured maps, besides a number of smaller black and white maps, and many illustrations and diagrams. The encyclopædia is to be completed in ten volumes.
