A SECOND VOLUME OF GERMAN POPULAR STORIES,
Illustrated by George Cruikshank, price 7s.
'Of the first volume of this entertaining publication we spoke very favorably; and what with the German varieties in this sequel of well known nursery tales, and the clever designs of George Cruikshank, certain it is this volume the second deserves almost equal praise.'—Literary Gazette.

GREENWICH HOSPITAL,
A Series of Naval Sketches, descriptive of the Life of a Man-of-War's-Man, by an Old Sailor. Printed in demy 4to. with Twelve characteristic Illustrations on Copper by George Cruikshank, coloured in Costume, in addition to numerous Engravings on Wood, price One Guinea, boards.
'In compliment to the inexhaustible talent and drollery of George Cruikshank, we have put this article at the head of our department of the Fine Arts; and it well deserves that grace. Yet it must not be fancied that we mean to derogate from the literary merits of the "Old Sailor," whose Smollet-like humour and genuine nautical characteristics so often occupied that portion of the Literary Gazette in which we endeavour to lighten and enliven its graver pages. Indeed, these Tales (or the far greater number of them) now so cleverly brought together, were originally printed in our columns; where they obtained so much popularity, as to lead to their being republished in this collected form, with the addition of the artist's merry, grotesque, and laughable designs.'—Literary Gazette.

'There is much matter worthy of earnest national attention in these fictions; while, at the same time, they are characteristic and amusing'—Literary Gazette.
'The designs of George Cruikshank, in this work, are sufficient to render any tales immortal.'—British Press.
