NEW BOOKS BULLETIN

English Travellers of the Renaissance

By Clare Howard

A good sub-title to this book would be "The Grand Tour in the Sixteenth and
Seventeenth Centuries." We have a series of most interesting extracts from the
innumerable little volumes of directions for foreign travellers issued during the
sixteenth and seventeenth centuries for the guidance of English youths about to
venture on the Continent, together with comments on them. Miss Howard shows
the various purposes which travellers had in their minds in setting out on their
journeys in successive generations; how at one time it was mainly in the pursuit
of learning; at another the acquirement of the more courtly arts; at another a kind
of glorified athleticism; and the latest of all a sort of dilettantism. Thus this book
is, without any question whatever, a veritable novelty among books, and a most
delightful one as well. There are twelve charming illustrations from portraits and
old prints. A book certain to give lasting pleasure to the reader.

The Conservation of the Child

John Lane Co.

By Arthur Holmes

This monograph aims to give a practical description of the inauguration and oper-
ation of a psychological clinic. Being practical, it does not attempt to go deeply
into the abstract principles underlying clinic methods. It covers the field of clinic
operations and offers a practical guide to the psycho-clinicist, while at the same
time extending its discussions of retarded children far enough to make it valuable
and interesting to the teacher, to the medical profession or to any one interested
in child-welfare.

Familiar Spanish Travels

J. B. Lippincott Co.

By W. D. Howells

A thoroughly charming and delightful sketch of travel in that most picturesque of
countries, Spain. Dr Howells has seldom written a more entertaining book. If
he did not visit Spain in the most favorable season, and though he experienced a
number of discomforts, he took everything as it came with the utmost good humor,
and saw everything he wanted to see and much that he had to see. His book is
utterly devoid of the qualities of a guide book, with which it has nothing in
common. It is a record of personal travel and adventure, written by the foremost
living man of letters in America. It is a book of absorbing interest and thoroughly
enjoyable.

Romances of the French Theatre

Harper & Bros.

By Francis Gribble

Mr. Gribble has long since established a reputation as a biographer. The purpose
of the present interesting book, as he tells his readers with engaging frankness, is
to tell stories; but to tell them without suppressing the material facts necessary to
a sound judgment of the rights of the case and a well-informed criticism of certain
aspects of life. The lives on and off the stage of the most famous French act-
tresses are intimately described, and with no suppression of the material facts.
A handsome dress and some beautiful portraits adds to the pleasure of this
fascinating book.
