BY ISABEL MUNKITTRICK.
_PRICE_ 11/3½. These remarkable lyrics are translations into vernacular verse of the prose versions of specimens of the literature of the great apes of Africa, collected by Professor GARNER. It is not too much to say that those touching _cris de coeur_ redolent of the jungle, the lagoon and the hinterland, will appeal with irresistible force to all lovers of sincere and passionate emotion. The Chimpanzee's "swing song" on page 42 is a marvel of oscillating melody. * * * * * _THE MILLENNIUM VIÂ ARMAGEDDON._ BY REV. ANGUS WOTTLEY, D.D. _WITH A FOREWORD BY_ PRINCIPAL CAWKER. _PRICE_ 9/4¼. This is a work of over 120,000 words of extraordinary beauty and distinction. It has gone into 150 editions in Patagonia, where the editions are very large, and ought to be in great demand in this country. Tiberius Mull, writing in the Literary Supplement of _The Scottish Oil World_, uses these remarkable words: "I do honestly believe that Dr. Angus Wottley's book is the most weighty volume he has ever given to the world." |
