"The Word" Series.

By SUSAN and ANNA WARNER, Authors of "The Wide, Wide World," "Queechy," &c. With Illustrations, Plain and Coloured. Small crown 8vo. 2s. 6d. each.

The aim of this series is so to set forth the Bible incidents and course of history, with its train of actors, as to see them in the circumstances and colouring, the light and shade of their actual existence. The Authors accordingly have taken whatever research and travel, with recent science and discovery, have made sure to fill up what is sketchy and clear up what is obscure; thus entering, as far as may be, into the simple truth of the things, the times and the actors. 1. Walks from Eden: The Scripture Story from the Creation to the Death of Abraham.

II. The House of Israel: The Scripture Story from the Birth of Isaac to the Death of Jacob.

III. The Kingdom of Judah: From the Death of Solomon to the Captivity.

IV. The Broken Walls of Jerusalem. Completing the House of Israel, and the Kingdom of Judah.

v. The Star out of Jacob: The Scripture Story illustrating the Earlier Portion of the Gospel Narrative.

"These five books form a most comprehensive and attractive commentary on the Scriptures suited to the requirements of the young. More real knowledge in true child language, and within the understanding of children, it has never been our privilege to meet with before. We are disposed to envy those young friends who are fortunate enough to number them among their literary possessions, for although pre eminently children's books, they are yet well able to impart instruction to children of a larger growth." -ROCK. "There is a pleasant freshness and reality, conveyed to the old, well-worn stories which will make children understand the details of Eastern life and the manners and customs of the old pastoral times. 'The Word' Series will be a charming gift to young people." -ATHES SUM. LONDON: JAMES NISBET & CO., 21 BERNERS STREET.
