ORDER THE "FLAMENG EDITION" OF

BOCCACCIO'S DECAMERON.

A REVISED TRANSLATION BY W. K. KELLY.

Illustrated with Portrait and Ten Etchings, designed and engraved by M. LEOPOLD FLAMENG One vol., crown 8vo, cloth, $3.75.

From the Boston Globe.

It is by far the finest edition of the Decameron in English which has ever been given to the public, and is a complete presentation of the great Italian story-teller, to whom literature has been so much indebted for the last five hundred years. Lovers of the great Etruscan will find it altogether the most satisfactory edition of the hundred tales to be found.

From the Literary News.

These illustrations, exquisite in design and masterly in execution, more truthfully interpret the spirit of Boccaccio's writings than any other designs ever published. Their character may be best indicated by saying that they are free from the grossness which characterizes the old illustrated editions, and from the inanity which distinguishes the modern illustrated editions.

THE "FLAMENG EDITION" OF THE

Heptameron of Margaret, Queen of Navarre.

With Eight Etchings. Nearly ready.

PUBLISHERS' TRADE-LIST ANNUAL

FOR

1875

is now ready, containing the new LISTS of one hundred and fifty-five American Publishing Houses (four more than last year), a GENERAL INDEX to the prominent books in the same, embracing about 14,000 titles, Indexes to MEDICAL and LAW BOOKS, with about eight hundred titles each, and the complete AMERICAN EDUCATIONAL CATALOGUE, for 1875, with 7000 titles more, the series guiding the bookseller or reader to the full entries of over 22,000 books.

The addition of these Indexes makes the work absolutely indispensable to the bookseller. causing it to displace entirely the previous Annual. By keeping a copy of this work on his counter at the service of the customer, like a directory, the bookseller will do much to promote his trade. The librarian and the general reader will also find the ANNUAL most valuable in guiding them to the wide range of American literature.

The orders previous to publication day having been supplied at the usual nominal rate, the price of the work, as previously announced, is now put, to cover the cost of making the Indexes, at the following rates:

The volume being too large for the mails, directions for forwarding through jobbers or for expressage, which must be paid on delivery, must accompany each order. The volume is forwarded at our risk by express only.
