 WILLIAM E. CARSON'S

Mexico, the Wonderland of the South

Illustrated, cloth, i2mo, $2.25 net Mr. Carson knows Mexico thoroughly, and he has drawn an accurate and fascinating pen picture of the country and of the people, of their everyday life and the everyday sights and scenes. It would be hard to discover anything worth seeing that he has not seen. He has wandered around the Mexican capital and other old cities; he has explored the gold and silver mines and visited some of the quaint health resorts; he has gone mountain climbing and tarpon fishing — and he tells of these many experiences in a most engaging manner. Many pictures of curious and out-of-the- way places add greatly to its beauty and to the value of the book for travellers and general readers.

Alaska : The Great Country

Illustrated, cloth, i2mo, $2.23 net "No other book gives so clear an impression of the beauty and grandeur and vast- ness of our northernmost territory, nor so inspires one to explore its vastnesses. She has mingled enough of history and statistics to make it authoritative, and has em- bellished the tale with stories and anecdotes to prevent its being dull, and has suc- ceeded in writing what might well be called a great book on a great subject." — The Boston Evening Transcript.
