LIFE AND TIMES OF LUTHER (The)—By W. Carlos Martyn.
Most of Luther's biographers have traced his life chiefly and intentionally from a personal standpoint. In these pages an effort has been made to combine a biography of Luther and a concise history of the Reformation, so that the most unlettered reader might get from this volume at once an accurate personal view of Luther and a clear idea of the grounds upon which the Reformation was based, together with its salient characteristics and its most famous historical personages. 12mo, cloth, $1.50.
LIFE OF ADONIRAM JUDSON (The)—By his son Edward Judson.

In order to bring into bold relief Mr. Judson's social, domestic, and personal traits, large extracts have been introduced from his journals. 8vo, cloth, $1.50.
