“ A very valuable addition respecting
a part of the world in which the commercial
interests of the country may in
all probability be concerned to a very
important extent.”—Times.
“ A mass of invaluable information
for the trader, as well as the man of
science and letters.”
“ To the flood of intelligence relative
to these far eastern countries, the present
work is an addition, not only of
great interest, but of great importance
and authority.”— Literary Gazette.
“ Mr. Crawfurd has presented us, in
the present volumes, both with a very
valuable contribution to the geography
and statistics of the oriental world, and
with one of the most interesting narratives
we have for some time past been
called upon to notice. The countries
of which he gives us a description, although
they attracted considerable attention
from the earliest European adventurers
to India, and were even
regularly resorted to by ourselves for
some years after our first establishment
in the East, had for a long period been
almost excluded from the range of our
commercial speculation ; and in regard
indeed to their recent and actual condition,
might be said to be nearly unknown
to us.”—Monthly Review.

and Habits of Greece and Albania, and including the Portraits o f the
present Sultan Mahmoud, and of the late notorious Ali Pasha o f Janina
o f whose adventurous career the best account yet supplied is given in
these volumes.
“ The second edition, in 8vo., of this
valuable work on Greece, which has
taken its stand as a universal companion
to the Grecian historians and
poets, is illustrative not only of the topography
and antiquities of Albania,
the Morea, and the Archipelago, but is
equally comprehensive as regards the
cradle -of the Muses, Sicily. By the
publication of the second edition, in 2
vols. 8yo., the extensive design of the
author is fulfilled ; and no scene of any
famous event, no mountain or valley,
lake or river, hallowed by the poets—
no renowned edifice, or magical piece
of sculpture, is left unexplored or un-
exarained by actual research on the
