LIFE AND LETTERS OF FRANCES, BARONESS BUNSEN. Fourth Edition. With Portraits. 2 vols. crown 8vo, 21S.

MEMORIALS OF A QUIET LIFE. 3 vols. crown 8vo. Vols. I. and II., 215. Nineteenth Edition. Vol. III., with numerous Photographs, 10s. 6d.

"The name of Hare is one deservedly to be honoured; and in these 'Memorials,' which are as true and satisfactory a biography as it is possible to write, the author places his readers in the heart of the family, and allows them to see the hidden sources of life and love by which it is nourished and sustained."-Athenæum.

"One of those books which it is impossible to read without pleasure. It conveys a sense of repose not unlike that which everybody must have felt out of service-time in quiet little village churches. Its editor will receive the hearty thanks of every cultivated reader for these profoundly interesting Memorials' of two brothers, whose names and labours their universities and Church have alike reason to cherish with affection and remember with pride, who have smoothed the path of faith to so many troubled wayfarers, strengthening the weary and confirming the weak."-Standard.

New Pocket Edition, revised.

2 vols. fcap. 8vo, 10s. Thirteenth Edition.

"The best handbook of the city and environs of Rome ever published. Cannot be too much commended."-Pall Mall Gazette.

"This book is sure to be very useful. It is thoroughly practical, and is the best guide that yet has been offered."-Daily News.

"Mr. Hare's book fills a real void, and gives to the tourist all the latest discoveries and the fullest information bearing on that most inexhaustible of subjects, the city of Rome. . . It is much fuller than Murray,' and any one who chooses may know how Rome really looks in sun or shade.". Spectator.

WORKS BY AUGUSTUS J. C. HARE

WANDERINGS IN SPAIN. With 17 Full-Page Illustrations. Fifth Edition. Crown 8vo, 7s. 6d.

"Mr. Hare's book is admirable. We are sure no one will regret making it the companion of a Spanish journey. It will bear reading repeatedly when one is moving among the scenes it describes-no small advantage when the travelling library is scanty."-Saturday Review.

"Here is the ideal book of travel in Spain; the book which exactly anticipates the requirements of everybody who is fortunate enough to be going to that enchanted land; the book which ably consoles those who are not so happy by supplying the imagination from the daintiest and most delicious of its stories."-Spectator.

"Since the publication of 'Castilian Days,' by the American diplomat, Mr. John Hay, no pleasanter or more readable sketches have fallen under our notice."-Athenæum.

CITIES OF SOUTHERN ITALY AND SICILY. With Illustrations. Crown 8vo, 10s. 6d.

"Mr. Hare's name will be a sufficient passport for the popularity of his new work. His books on the Cities of Italy are fast becoming as indispensable to the traveller in that part of the country as the guide-books of Murray or of Baedeker. . . . His book is one which I should advise all future travellers in Southern Italy and Sicily to find room for in their portmanteaus."-Academy.

CITIES OF NORTHERN ITALY. Second Edition With Illustrations. 2 vols. crown 8vo, 12s. 6d.

"We can imagine no better way of spending a wet day in Florence or Venice than in reading all that Mr. Hare has to say and quote about the history, arts, and famous people of those cities. These volumes come uuder the class of volumes not to borrow, but to buy."-Morning Post.

CITIES OF CENTRAL ITALY. Second Edition. With Illustrations. 2 vols. crown 8vo, 12s. 6d.

SKETCHES IN HOLLAND AND SCANDINAVIA. With Illustrations. Crown 8vo, 3s. 6d.

"This little work is the best companion a visitor to these countries can have, while those who stay at home can also read it with pleasure and profit."-Glasgow Herald.

"Will be popular for its handy size and light manner. Without being strikingly amusing, it is yet never wearisome. His notes of travel in Norway are very tempting to tourists attracted to the north."-Art Journal.

STUDIES IN RUSSIA. With numerous Illustrations. Crown 8vo, 10s. 6d.

"Mr. Hare's book may be recommended as at once entertaining and instructive."-Athenæum.

"A delightful and instructive guide to the places visited. It is, in fact, a sort of glorified guide-book, with all the charm of a pleasant and cultivated literary companion."-Scotsman.

"Mr. Hare's volumes, with their charming illustrations, are a reminder of how much we miss by neglecting provincial France."-Times.

"Every one who has used one of Mr. Hare's books will welcome the appearance of his new work upon France. The books are the most satisfactory guide-books for a traveller of culture who wishes improvement as well as entertainment from a tour. . . . It is not necessary to go to the places described before the volumes become useful. While part of the work describes the district round Paris, the rest practically opens up a new country for English visitors to provincial France."--Scotsman.
