unfamiliar to the English public.                           Demy %vo. ics. 6d.

Fifty Years of Ocean Hazard

Foreword by SIR ALAN ANDERSON, G.B.E., M.P., Chairman of the Orient Line.
Cir Charles Matheson started his life at sea in a windjammer in
^1891, experiencing all the discipline and hardships of a "hungry
ship". Thirty-five years ago he joined the Orient Line and has since
proved himself master of the intricate problem of great passenger liners—
safer—better fed—more comfortable than sail but tempting their
Commander to say or do not just the right thing at almost every moment
of the twenty-four hours. These enthralling memories of the dangerous>
romantic sea-life of the past reflect a courage otts and impressive personality
who, whether in peace or war, was always the right man for the tight
place.                                        Demy 8vo. 20 Illustrations. Bs. 6d.

The Problem of Palestine

TITT^ all believe that Palestine is the Holy Land, yet between us we have
Vr   made it most unholy.   In the future let Palestine be governed by a

trust whose duty it shall be to keep it holy.

That is the passionate plea that Dr. Maude Rqyden makes in this
brilliant and human history of Jew and Arab in Palestine. Dr. Roy den
stands above the fierce battle between Jem and Arabs in the tragically
divided land. Her book is a history not a biased political pamphlet,
