PLAIN TALES FROM THE HILLS. Forty-fifth Thousand.
SATURDAY REVIEW.—"Mr. Kipling knows and appreciates the English in India, and is a born story-teller and a man of humour into the bargain.... It would be hard to find better reading."
BLACK AND WHITE.~"Life's Handicap contains much of the best work hitherto accomplished by the author, and, taken as a whole, is a complete advance upon its predecessors."
MANY INVENTIONS. Thirty-fourth Thousand.
PALL MALL GAZETTE.—"The completest book that Mr. Kipling has yet given us in workmanship, the weightiest and most humane in breadth of view.... It can only be regarded as a fresh landmark in the progression of his genius."
ACADEMY.—"Whatever else be true of Mr. Kipling, it is the first truth about him that he has power, real intrinsic power... Mr. Kipling's work has innumerable good qualities."
GLOBE.—"Containing some of the best of his highly vivid work."
PUNCH.—"'Æsop's Fables and dear old Brer Fox and Co.,' observes the Baron sagely, 'may have suggested to the fanciful genius of Rudyard Kipling the delightful idea, carried out in the most fascinating style, of The Jungle Book.'"
DAILY TELEGRAPH.—"The appearance of T&e Second Jungle Book is a literary event of which no one will mistake the importance. Unlike most sequels, the various stories comprised in the new volume are at least equal to their predecessors."

ROBBERY UNDER ARMS.
A STORY OF LIFE AND ADVENTURE IN THE BUSH AND
IN THE GOLD-FIELDS OF AUSTRALIA.
GUARDIAN.—"A singularly spirited and stirring tale of Australian life, chiefly in the remoter settlements.... Altogether it is a capital story, full of wild adventure and startling incidents, and told with a genuine simplicity and quiet appearance of truth, as if the writer were really drawing upon his memory rather than his imagination."
A MODERN BUCCANEER.
DAILY CHRONICLE.—"We do not forget Robbery under Arms or any of its various successors, when we say that Rolf Boldrewood has never done anything so good as A Modern Buccaneer. It is good, too, in a manner which is for the author a new one."
THE MINER'S RIGHT. (Also 8vo. Sewed, 6d.)
A TALE OF THE AUSTRALIAN GOLD-FIELDS.
WORLD.—"Full of good passages, passages abounding in vivacity, in the colour and play of life.... The pith of the book lies in its singularly fresh and vivid pictures of the humours of the gold-fields—tragic humours enough they are, too, here and again."
THE SQUATTER'S DREAM. (Also 8vo. Sewed, 6d.)
FIELD.—"The details are filled in by a hand evidently well conversant with his subject, and everything is ben trovato, if not actually true. A perusal of these cheerfully-written pages will probably give a better idea of realities of Australian life than could be obtained from many more pretentious works."
A SYDNEY-SIDE SAXON.
GLASGOW HERALD.—"The interest never flags, and altogether A Sydney-Side Saxon is a really refreshing book."
A COLONIAL REFORMER.
ATHENÆUM.—"A series of natural and entertaining pictures of Australian life, which are, above all things, readable."
NEVERMORE.
OBSERVER.—"As exciting story of Ballarat in the fifties. Its hero, Lance Trevanion, is a character which for force of delineation has no equal in Rolf Boldrewood's previous novels."
PLAIN LIVING. A Bush Idyll.
ACADEMY.—"A hearty story, deriving charm from the odours of the bush and the bleating of incalculable sheep."
MY RUN HOME.
ATHENÆUM.—"Rolf Boldrewood's last story is a racy volume. It has many of the best qualities of Whyte Melville, the breezy freshness and vigour of Frank Smedley, with the dash and something of the abandon of Lever.... His last volume is one of his best."
THE SEALSKIN CLOAK.
TIMES.—"A well-written story."
THE CROOKED STICK; or, Pollie's Probation.
ACADEMY.—"A charming picture of Australian station life."
OLD MELBOURNE MEMORIES.
NATIONAL OBSERVER.—"His book deserves to be read in England with as much appreciation as it has already gained in the country of its birth."
