SELF-MADE MEN. Fourth and Cheap Edition, crown 8vo, price 3s. 6d. "This extraordinary book has just reached us as we are closing our sheet. It is a glowing, a glorious talk about all sorts of men, and all sorts of things; a cyclopædia of biographical facts. It must have required no small portion of the lifetime, even of a laborious man, to prepare himself for such an undertaking. To every young man in England we would say, 'Haste and procure it, and then con it by incessant perusal till you have caught its spirit, and you will be a gainer as long as you live.""-Christian Witness. "We should like to know that every young man in the land had this work in his possession. It would greatly aid his studies, and stimulate his exertions. It is a valuable and useful volume."-Wesleyan Times. "His appeals are not got up in slow measured tones, but burst upon us with all the force and fiery eloquence of the true orator; and his reasonings are sound in every part. To him who desires to be a man, and not a milksop, we tender our advice to consult 'Self-made Men.""-Peterhead Sentinel. "There is earnestness, right principle, and good sense in what Mr. Anderson has written."-British Quarterly. KINGS OF SOCIETY; or, Leaders of Social, Intellectual, and Religious Progress. New and Cheap Edition, crown 8vo, price 38. 6d. "Mr. Anderson's estimate of true social influence may be gathered from the names of the men on whose heads he places the coronet. The names selected are five in number,-Luther, the hero of the Reformation; Cromwell, the champion of Puritanism; Raikes, the founder of Sunday Schools; Carey, the pioneer of Missions; and Pounds, the originator of Ragged Schools. It would be difficult to find a book we should place in the hands of an intelligent youth with greater confidence that he would read it, and that it would do him good."-London Quarterly Review. "The author's estimate of greatness is rightly founded on moral rather than on mere intellectual considerations. The standpoint is that of evangelical orthodoxy. The style that of a vigorous, self-reliant writer, able to seize characteristic features with success, and to present them in nervous and vivid English. The result is a book which will be heartily welcomed by many, especially heads of families, readers to a class, and Sunday School librarians."-Meliora. "Too much praise cannot be given to the author for clearness, pointedness, and force, as well as for his diligence in collecting facts, some of which have the interest of novelty besides the attraction of truthfulness. He writes in a genial, appreciative tone, and the book abounds in healthy moral sentiments, the outcomings of a pure Christian philosophy."Christian World. "The ground surveyed by the author is very extensive, and the particulars introduced innumerable. There will be general thankfulness for a work so eloquently written, and so greatly adapted for usefulness."Christian Times. "The whole aspect and style of this volume is sure to commend it at once to a large class of readers. The way in which the author arranges his materials, and exhibits them to his readers, prevents dulness, and encourages perusal."-Christian Witness. "Mr. Anderson gives us a very good selection of those who may claim our reverence as the teachers of men."-Quiver. October, 1870. HODDER AND STOUGHTON'S CATALOGUE OF BOOKS. ABBOTT (J.)
