By RICHARD HAKLUYT, Preacher and Sometime Student of Christ Church in Oxford. Illustrations and Maps. To be completed in twelve volumes. Now ready. Volumes I.-VII. Svo, cl., $4.00 net per volume. (Orders received for complete sets only.) This great work, described by Froude as the prose epic of the modern English nation, is the treasure-house of the story of Elizabethan adventure. It is there that the deeds of Drake and Hawkins, Gilbert and Willoughby, Raleigh and Frobisher, and scores of other heroes are to be found told in the original narratives, and it is thence that historians like Froude and novelists like Kingsley have drawn the material for their pictures of England's exploits in the new-found world at the dawn of her imperial day. The aim of the publishers in issuing this edition is to provide an accurate, complete, and beautifully printed text from the edition of 1598-1600, as revised by Hakluyt.

This great collection is a continuation and enlargement of Richard Hakluyt's Principall Navigations, Voiages, Traffiques and Discoveries of the English Nation. At Hakluyt's death he left unpublished a very large collection of voyages in manuscript. These came into the hands of Purchas, who added to them many more. Among the contents of Purchas His Pilgrimes are to be found the early expeditions fitted out by the East India Company and sailing under the command of Sir Henry Middleton and Captain Nicholas Downton; the adventures of Captain John Smith in Turkey and Virginia, the Arctic Discoveries of Barents, Baffin and Henry Hudson, and among the translations Oviedo and Las Casas. The reprint will contain all the original curious illustrations and maps, and the rare engraved title page will be reproduced in facsimile. The edition of 1625 contains a very inadequate index which will be superseded in the reprint by a complete index on modern lines. In twenty Volumes, $3.25 net per Volume.
