THE LATEST BOOKS TALE OF THREE CITIES: D. L. Murray. London, Rome, Paris in the “sixties ’ of last century. D. L. Murray has ipade them live again in a series of panoramas so vividly and unmistakably true that they belong for all time to Engilsh Literature. As usual a host of characters troop across Mi- Murray’s pages, characters sinister, lovable, human, macabre, and heroic, but each one of them in instinct with his own vitality, and while dressed in the costume of its own particular period or class, mirrors a much wider and more universal life. Price 10/6 (Posted 11/2). THE BATTLE OF THE PLATE: Commander A. B. Campbell. This is the full thrilling narrative of the brilliant naval action which led to the scuttling of the “Admiral Graf von Spec,” and its dramatic sequel in which three hundred British Seamen were rescued from the German ship “Altmark.” Commander Campbell has written a graphic account of the glorious deeds of the men of the cruisers “Ajax,” “Exeter” and “Achilles,” and this excellently illustrated book will live as a fine and fitting tribute to the men whose resolution and valour have added yet another- great victory to the annals of the Royal Navy.
