PITMAN'S WHERE TO LOOK. An Easy Guide to Books of reference. In crown 8vo, cloth, Is. net. Second Edition, Revised.

" Very much what the Review of Reviews is to other journals is Pitman's Where to Look to other books of reference. This handy little volume will tell you at a glance which is the best book of reference dealing with almost any subject under the sun. The volume in no way supersedes any existing reference book, but is aa invaluable addition to one's library, as it intimates at once the best source of information not only on general subjects to be found in the familiar Whitaker or Hazell, but also on little-known matters, as to which the plain man is often at a loss where to turn for reference.
