the title of The World’s Workers.  Mr. Archibald Forbes’ Life of Sir Henry Havelock is one of the most fascinating works of its kind; the Rev. H.C.G.  Moule’s Life of the Rev. Charles Simeon is delightfully written and full of interest, and the Rev. J.H.  Overton’s Life of Wesley gives an admirable picture in brief of the great revival preacher.  Further particulars of the great and good Father Dainien can be gathered from Mr. Edward Clifford’s work; of Elizabeth Gilbert, from the Life by Frances Martin; and of George Mueller, from the shilling autobiography he has written, which is worthy of the deepest attention.  John Howard’s life has been well told by Mr. Hepworth Dixon, Lord Shaftesbury’s by Mr. Edwin Hodder, and Mr. Glaisher’s career is set forth at large in Travels in the Air.  Perhaps the largest and best collection of narratives of noble lives is contained in Mr. Edwin Hodder’s Heroes of Britain in Peace and War, now issued in two cheap volumes; from this many facts have been gathered.  In The Memorials of Captain Hedley Vicars will be found a thoughtful picture of that devoted life; whilst in The Life and Work of James Hannington, by E.C.  Dawson, a graphic narrative is given of the martyr bishop of Central Africa. Ismailia affords a vivid picture of Sir Samuel Baker’s life in the Soudan, and few books will give greater pleasure to the reader than General Butler’s Life of General Gordon.  A Life of Mr. W.H.  Smith, by Sir H. Maxwell, has been recently published in popular form. The Lives of Robert and Mary Moffat, by J.S.  Moffat, will afford much enjoyment, as will Miss Yonge’s Life of Bishop Patteson.
