Trevelyan (G.O., M.P.) ---------------------- CAWNPORE. Illustrated with Plan. By _G.O. Trevelyan_, M.P., Author of "The Competition Wallah." Second Edition. Crown 8vo. _6_s_._ "_In this book we are not spared_ one fact _of the sad story; but our feelings are not harrowed by the recital of imaginary outrages. It is good for us at home that we have one who tells his tale so well as does Mr. Trevelyan_."--_Pall Mall Gazette_. THE COMPETITION WALLAH. New Edition. Crown 8vo, _6s_. "_The earlier letters are especially interesting for their racy descriptions of European life in India..... Those that follow are of more serious import, seeking to tell the truth about the Hindoo character and English influences, good and bad, upon it, as well as to suggest some better course of treatment than that hitherto adopted_."--_Examiner_. |
