"A very clear explanation of the principles on which the business of Banking must be conducted."-Banker's Magazine. "Mr. Gilbart's works on Banking have attained a just celebrity. Suitable to the wants of the Banking and Mercantile community. For statesmen and political economists they are sources of much useful and even indispensable information."-Economist. "These two volumes will prove highly interesting to all classes of readers, and inculcate a useful knowledge of the monetary system of the British empire. It is an excellent and informing work, in a clear and straightforward style."- United Service Gazette. II. THE HISTORY AND PRINCIPLES OF BANKING. Third Edition. Price 9s. "Combining a clear appreciation of the Science of Banking with the best practical knowledge of his business, we have seen no work on the subject which better deserves to be consulted and studied than Mr. Gilbart's volume."-Literary Gazette. "Mr. Gilbart claims for his book that it is a scientific work written by a practical man. His claims appear to be fully borne out by the perspicuity of his views and the analytical spirit in which he treats the subject. He is fully master of the details, and ascends with equal ease to the examination of the elementary principles."-Atlas. "A more complete and accurate work, with less irrelevant matter, we never read."-Gentleman's Magazine. III. LECTURES ON THE HISTORY AND PRINCIPLES OF ANCIENT COMMERCE. New Edition. Price 2s. 6d. "Thousands of young men who have not had the opportunity of consulting the writers of Greece and Rome, will find a variety of curious facts recorded in these pages, which cannot fail to afford amusement to those who seek no higher gratification; while those who desire to be instructed will find the philosophy of the comments on past transactions well adapted to discipline and enlarge their reflective faculties. The style of Mr. Gilbart is pure and simple; but there are many indications of his capacity to rise to the elevation of the loftiest eloquence."-Douglas Jerrold's Weekly Newspaper, now the Weekly News. "Mr. Gilbart has evidently studied his subject. He writes forcibly and well, and has collected together a mass of useful information, well digested and lucidly arranged. The preface contains this suggestion, namely, that public lectureships should be established by the Government in any general system of national education. We do not believe that such a system would be found to operate beneficially; but if we could be assured that all the lectures would be as meritorious as those now before us, then our objection to a great extent would be removed."-Morning Post. "We must testify our very high admiration of this work. As a piece of authorship it is very superior: clearly, strongly, convincingly written, abounding in valuable facts and just principles, and pervaded by a fine spirit of generous philanthropy. It were well to have such Lectures as these delivered in every part of the land."-British Banner. 392 IV. THE ELEMENTS OF BANKING; WITH TEN MINUTES ADVICE ABOUT KEEPING A BANKER. Price 2s. 6d.
