Robert Carter & Brothers' New Books
Forty Years in the Turkish Empire.
Dr. Goodell was the first American Missionary at Constantinople, his wife the first American lady that ever visited the Turkish Capital, and they both remained at this post in labors of usefulness, until in their old age they returned to this country to die among their kindred. This volume is largely autobiographical, being compiled from Dr. Goodell’s Letters and Journal, containing also his personal Reminiscences written during the last year of his life. He was inimitable as a letter writer, and everything that came from his pen was marked by spirituality, a peculiarly apt use of Scripture language, and a spice of wit that enlivened his conversation and his writings to the day of his death.
Autobiography and Memoir of Dr. Guthrie.
“His stories which give sparkle and zest to the narrative, and greet us on almost every page, are woven together in a picture of Scottish life that is wonderfully graphic.” — Harper’s Magazine.

Without doing violence to historical truth, he seems to invest history with all the charms of romance, and with the enthusiasm and skill of a poet he sketches on the historic page his fascinating and life-like pictures.
Hugh Miller’s Works.
From the late Professor Agassiz:
“There is in Hugh Miller’s
geological works a freshness of conception, a depth of
thought, and a purity of feeling rarely met with in works of that
character.”

Mr. Bayne carries the
absorbed reader with him through the
whole period, unfolding leaf after leaf of the history of a life,

“The children in Miss Matthews’ stories are perfectly natural. They get into trouble and get out of it. They say sweet things, and sharp things, and funny things, yet all the time childish things. They illustrate the right and the wrong, but in either case in a manner to attract to the former.” — Albany Express.
Dare to Do Right Series.
“Miss Julia A. Mathews’ boys are as live and wide-awake as any one could wish, into mischief, now and then, like the majority of boys, yet frank and manly withal, and not ashamed to ‘own up’ when they find themselves in fault.” — Hearth and Home.

All about Jesus.
“I have read it with the delight which every reader of the ‘Pilgrim’s Progress’ recalls. Compared with the current literature of the time it produces a feeling akin to that of one who passes from barren sand into the verdure and fragrance of a spring garden, when each lily and rose is still touched with the morning dew, and rejoicing in the early sunshine.” — From Judge John K. Porter.
