  • MATERNAL SOLICITUDE for a DAUGHTER'S BEST INTERESTS. By Mrs. TAYLOR. Thirteenth Edition. Price 3s. 6d.
    "It is replete with sound and rational piety, judicious remark, and right feeling.­The fifth, eighth, eleventh, and last two Essays may, perhaps, be referred to as among the most interesting; but all are characterised by a genuine earnestness of desire to contribute to the welfare of the person addressed, which gives them a charm and a force that no writings can possess, the sole objects of which have been evidently either gain or glory."­British Review.
  • PRACTICAL HINTS to YOUNG FEMALES, on the Duties of a Wife, a Mother, and a Mistress of a Family. By Mrs. TAYLOR. Price 5s.
    "The duties of a wife, a mother, and a mistress of a family, are admirably portrayed and most successfully urged in this little volume. It is a book that will be placed in the hands of those who are to fill those enviable situations, with the utmost advantage."­British Critic.
  • The ITINERARY of a TRAVELLER in the WILDERNESS, addressed to those who are performing the same Journey. By Mrs. TAYLOR. Price 5s.
    "If an air of sadness should appear to attach to this excellent volume­if it seem to breathe too much of the wilderness, it proceeds from a sorrowful heart­from the mother of the late Jane Taylor."­Eclectic Review.
  • RETROSPECTION. A Tale. By Mrs. TAYLOR. Price 5s.
    "We give our very cordial recommendation of her present volume, as replete with the most instructive lessons, both to young and old, and in every way worthy of the writer's well‐earned reputation."­Eclectic Review.
  • The FAMILY MANSION. A Tale. By Mrs. TAYLOR. Price 5s.
    "We are not told whether the "Family Mansion" is a fiction, or no fiction, but whether the story be real or not, it is all true­true in the most important sense; it has the truth of painting, and the truth of sentiment."­Eclectic Review.
  • The PRESENT of a MISTRESS to a YOUNG SERVANT, consisting of Friendly Advice and real Histories. By Mrs. TAYLOR. Price 3s. 6d.
    "We are happy to announce another publication of this judicious and useful writer, particularly as we think that the present will be found among the most valuable of Mrs. Taylor's productions."­Monthly Review.
  • DISPLAY. A Tale. By JANE TAYLOR, one of the Authors of "Original Poems for Infant Minds." Price 5s.
    "The author of 'Display' comes the nearest to Miss Edgeworth in point of style and skill in developing characters, of any writer that has yet appeared, but her production is distinguished by features of its own. We never met with any composition so completely and beautifully simple both in sentiment and style."­ Eclectic Review.
  • CORRESPONDENCE between a MOTHER and her DAUGHTER at SCHOOL. By Mrs. TAYLOR and Miss TAYLOR. Price 5s.
    "We have always closed the volumes produced by each of these ladies under the influence of the most pleasing impressions. In the work before us they have united their efforts, and have formed not only a very interesting, but a very useful work. We heartily recommend the volume to our female friends, matronly and juvenile."­Monthly Review.
  • ESSAYS in RHYME, on Morals and Manners. Fifth Edition. By JANE TAYLOR.
    "No poet of the time, [not excepting the greatest] has shown more exquisite skill in delineating human nature, human manners, and human frailties."­Montgomery's Christian Post.
