LIFE AND SERMONS OF DR. JOHN
TAULER, of Strasburg (1340).
Translated from the German, with Notices of Tauler's Life and Times, including some Account of the "Friends of God,"
By Miss SUSANNA WINKWORTH.
And a Preface by the Rev. CHARLES KINGSLEY.
Small 4to, Printed on Tinted Paper, and bound in antique style, with red edges, suitable for a Present. Price 15s.
"No difference of opinion can be felt as to the intrinsic value of these sermons, or the general interest attaching to this hook."—Athenæum.
"Miss Winkworth has done a service not only to church history and to literature, but to those who seek simple and true-hearted devotional reading, by producing a deeply-interesting life of Tauler, and giving us his sermons, tastefully and vigorously translated."—Guardian.
"A fragment of the best religion of the fourteenth century, most interesting in itself, and so presented as to lose none of its interest in the eyes of any reader. The Sermons have been selected with a view to their practical use, even in the present day."—Examiner.
"This volume has several claims to notice. It is a biography of an eloquent preacher of the fourteenth century. It gives a history of the 'Friends of God,' with which he was connected. And in the Sermons of Tauler the consideration is forced upon us how far an active pursuit of worldly concerns is compatible with devotion of the heart to God."—Press.

"Mr. Robertson, of Brighton, is a name familiar to most of us, and honoured by all to whom it is familiar. A true servant of Christ, a bold and heart-stirring preacher of the Gospel, his teaching was beautified and intensified by genius. New truth, new light, streamed from each well-worn text when he handled it. The present volume is rich in evidence of his pious, manly, and soaring faith, and of his power not only to point to heaven, but to lead the way."—Globe.
"These sermons are full of thought and beauty. There is not a sermon in the series that does not furnish evidence of originality without extravagance, of discrimination without tediousness, and of piety without cant or conventionalism."—British Quarterly.
"Very beautiful in feeling and occasionally striking and forcible in conception to a remarkable degree."—Guardian.
"We should be glad if all preachers more united with ourselves preached such sermons as these."—Christian Remembrancer.

A VISIT TO SALT LAKE;
Being a Journey across the Plains to the Mormon Settlements at Utah.
By WILLIAM CHANDLESS.
Post 8vo, with a Map. Price 9s. cloth.
"At length we have an English writer who has been to Salt Lake, and tells us all about it: he pledges his word to the accuracy of every conversation and every incident in his book. It has impressed us with the conviction that this strange heresy and schism of the nineteenth century has a stronger vitality than we had previously dreamt."—Athenæum.
