Tangerine:

A child's letters from Morocco. Edited by T. Ernest Waltham • Containing illustrations from photographs • Square Demy Octavo • Cloth • Price 3s. 6d.

"Tangerine," as the name implies, deals with Tangier, but not in an historical sense only, because the pretty title is the name given to the little heroine who describes, with open eyes of amazement, all the funny things and people she meets with while living in that strange Moorish country.

Her letters, and the many beautiful and unique photographs which illustrate them, carry one back to the Old Testament history times, and if the illustrations had not been from actual photographs, it would have been very difficult to have believed that the old, old customs could be seen to-day so near to our own country and unmixed with modern civilization.

The book will especially interest the young, because children love to have incidents of real life put before them when they have been seen through the eyes of another child; besides, tangerines' letters are full of quaint doings and little adventures which must appeal to them.
