AN INTRODUCTION TO THE GEOLOGY OF NEW SOUTH WALES.

By C.A.  Sussmilch, F.G.S.  Second edition, thoroughly revised and greatly enlarged, with folding coloured map and 100 other maps and illustrations.  Cloth gilt, 7s. 6d. (postage 3d.)

Australian Mining Standard:  “Students are greatly indebted to Mr. Sussmilch for the able manner in which he has presented in compact form all that is known at the present time on the subject....  The illustrations throughout are excellent, but the coloured geological map which serves as a frontispiece is a model of what such a map should be, avoiding the opposite evils of overcrowding and meagreness.  Mr. Sussmilch’s book should be of value, not only to students in the colleges, but to those practical miners who are also students.”

CHRISTOPHER COCKLE’S AUSTRALIAN EXPERIENCES.

By “OLD BOOMERANG” (J.R.  HOULDING).  Revised edition, with 2 portraits. 
Cloth gilt, 5s. (postage 2d.)

Originally published under the title “Australian Capers,” this volume has been out of print for many years, and copies which have come into the market secondhand have been purchased at enhanced prices.  The author has at last consented to its republication and has thoroughly revised it.  As a picture of Australian life thirty or forty years ago the book is worthy of a permanent place in our literature, and it contains plenty of fun and humour for both old and young.
