BY THE SAME AUTHOR

THE RISE OF MAN
By Colonel C. R. CONDER, LL.D., M.R.A.S.
Demy 8vo. 12s. net.

“‘The Rise of Man’ is the best book on its subject for the general reader that has appeared for many a long day, and ought to be studied by all who make pretensions to archæology of any kind whatever.... He has devoted particular attention to the beginnings of history, and in no other book can the story of early Asia be read so accurately and agreeably; the account of the rise of the three great races from their Armenian home is wholly admirable, and so is the story of the replacement of the Turanian civilization by Semitic Assyrian Empire. Colonel Conder has the whole of the world’s history up to 500 B. C. at his fingers’ ends.”—Cambridge Review.

“Wise, scholarly, and full of liberal thought.”—Globe.

“Embracing as it does all the fruits of recent research plainly set forth and in concise form, will be hailed with gladness by the busy man and with enthusiasm by the scholar.”—Evening Standard.

THE SECOND TEMPLE IN JERUSALEM, its History and Structure. By the Rev. W. Shaw Caldecott, Member of the Royal Asiatic Society; Author of “The Tabernacle,” etc. With Plans and Illustrations. Demy 8vo. 10s. 6d. net.

“The book, alike in its historical and architectural portions, reveals profound research and deep thoughtfulness, and is written throughout with lucidity and judiciousness. It will be a standard work of reference for students of Jewish history.”—Sheffield Independent.

“Will prove a valuable treatise for those who wish to understand and appreciate the history of Israel after the captivity.”—Aberdeen Free Press.

RESEARCHES IN SINAI. By Professor W. M. Flinders Petrie, D.C.L., LL.D., F.R.S., Edwards Professor of Egyptology, University College, London. With Chapters by C. T. Currelly, M.A., Officer of the Imperial Order of the Medjidie. With 186 Illustrations and 4 Maps. Demy 8vo. 21s. net.

“Necessity, as well as inclination, drew Mr. Flinders Petrie’s party last winter into the wilderness of Sinai.... That he has been richly rewarded, not merely by the more accurate examination of old finds, but by new and unexpected discoveries, is clearly attested by the present handsome volume.”—Scotsman.

A New Bible Dictionary written by Leading Scholars of to-day, and including the Results of Modern Research.

MURRAY’S NEW ILLUSTRATED BIBLE DICTIONARY. Edited by the Rev. William C. Piercy, Chaplain at the Whitelands Training College, Chelsea. With Illustrations, Plans, and Coloured Maps. Medium 8vo. 21s. net.

“This worthy volume is a compilation of most interesting and informing material. It is one that any person with serious claims to be called a reader might take up at odd moments and find therein an endless source of pleasure and profit. To the student of theology and Biblical lore it is a desideratum revealed, and no candidate for, or qualified member of, the Christian ministry should pursue his course a day longer without it.... So it is a good book, because you can take its word for granted; because you can tuck it under your arm if you are going out to some debate or lecture; because you can get solid food and even diversion for the mind by its pages—and good books, of such a kind, are not too plentiful.”—Daily Chronicle.
