Inman, Col. H. Old Santa Fé trail. 

N. Y., Macmillan Co., 1897 $3.50

The story of this romantic highway is for the first time given adequately, and at length by Col. Henry Inman, who knew the trail for a third of a century.

——— and Cody, W. F. Great Salt Lake trail. 

N. Y., Macmillan Co., 1898 $3.50

This new book makes a direct appeal to our common love of a good story, and it gains much from the fact that many of the men who move in its pages still live and that their deeds are part of history.

Irving, J. T. Indian sketches. 

N. Y., Putnam's Sons, n. d. $1.50

These sketches were not intended to form a continuous narrative, but to give an idea of the habits and customs of the Indian tribes whom the author visited.

Irving, W. Alhambra. 

Il.N. Y., Crowell & Co., n. d. $1.50

The work is equal in literary value to "The Sketch Book," and the descriptions are beautiful.

Jackson, H. H. Bits of travel. 

Bost., Roberts Bros., 1893 $1.25

H. H.'s choice of words is in itself a study of color. This is a most charming volume.

——— Bits of travel at home. 

N. Y., Roberts Bros., 1893 $1.50

The volume has few of the characteristics of a book of travel. It is entertaining and readable from cover to cover.

Jenks, T. Century world's fair book. 

Il.N. Y., Century Co., 1893 $1.50

It was a happy thought of Mr. Jenks to take a couple of bright young fellows and their tutor to the exposition and to chronicle their experiences and talk.

Jennings, N. A. Texas ranger. 

N. Y., Scribner's Sons, 1899 $1.25

The true story of a young man who enlisted in the early eighties in a company of Texas rangers. The book is as thrilling as a border romance.
