BOOKS PUBLISHED BY LEE & SHIEPARD. By the Author of "Abroad Agffair." OVER THE OCEAN; OR, SIGHTS AND SCENES IN FOREIGN LANDS. By CUR TIS GUILD, Author of "Abroad Again," and Editor of the Baston Conmmercial Bulletin. ONE VOL., CROWN 8VO. PAPER, -; CLOTH, $2.50. This book has not only become a favorite among the reading public, but is now generally accepted as one of the best guitles to Europe ever publislied. "Whether describing WestmiusteclAlbbey, or York Minster, Stratfoird-upon-Avon, or the streets of London; the wonders of the Louvre, or the gayeties and glitter of Paris; the,grandeur of the Alpine passes; the quaintness of old continental cities; experiences of post travel; the romantic beauties of the Italian lakes; the underground wonders of Adelsburg,, or the aqueous hiigliways of Venice; - the author aims to give many minute particulars, which foreign letter-writers deem of too little importance to mention, but which, nevertheless, are of great interest to the rcaeler." "A Close Observer of the Manners and Customs." "The utmost that any European tourist can hope to do is to tell the old story in a somewhat fresh way, and Mr. Guild has succeeded, at many points of his book, in doing this. He goes over the beaten track of Ireland, Scotland, England, France, Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, with a visit to Venice and Florence, a close observer of the manners and customs of the natives, and with a Yankee capacity for learning their ways and tricks.'Over the Ocean I will be a' pleasant refresher to those who hlave gone before, and a valuable guidebook to those who are to come after. Many of Mr. Guild's descriptions of scenery and sights are extremely graphic, and his hints to travellers are frequently very practical. "Evening Bulletin, Phila., Pa. "The Most Perfect Pen-Pictures of Sights and Scenes." "This is certainly a collection of some of the most perfect pen-pictures of sights and scenes in foreign lands we have ever read. The author carries the reader in imagination to the very scenes he himself has witnessed, conveying as vivid an idea of the places seen as could be conveyed to one who Ihas never visited Europe. Many minute particulars are also given, such as foreign letter-writers deem of too little importance to be mentioned, yet which are of great interest to the, geieral reader."- Sentinel, Eastiort, Me. "The Most Complete Book of Foreign Travel." "There is no end to the books on European travel that have from time to time appeared, and they pretty much all go over the same ground, but in following Mr. Guild's narrative, one almost forgets that he ever read of the countries beyond the seas before, for the subject is presented in such a graphic and lively manner that the reader almost fancies that he is actually witnessing the scenes and experiencing the emotions portrayed and expressed by the writer. The volume is so minute in detail that it serves as a guide-blk of travel, as well as one of entertainment. Valuable hints and information are given about the best hotels, and the names of shops in London and Paris are mentioned where Americans can find reasonable prices, &c. It is the most complete book of foreign travel that has ever appeared."- Union, Srngfield, Mass. "He has given Us a Life-like Picture." The habits of observation acquired by the author of this charming book, during many years' constant occupation as a Journalist, have proved so far a second nature to him, that upon whatever'sight or scene' his facile pen was turned, he has given us a life-like picture. Europe'is done' in a style that must serve as an invaluable guide to those who intend to go'over the ocean,' as well as furnish every one with an agreeable book for a half-hour's entertainment.
