KANURI READINGS
Oxford University Press, Price 6s, net
‘Ce volume mérite un bon accueil.’—René Basset in Revue Critique d’Histoire et de Littérature.
‘This book contains several Kanuri stories, which are well selected for the purpose, with both word for word equivalents and translations, so that the work of understanding the language is made as easy as possible. There are some facsimiles of Kanuri writing.’—Colonial Office Journal.
‘The author is to be congratulated.’—The African Mail.
‘This little work is intended to be, and, in our opinion, constitutes, a useful and indeed necessary supplement to the two classical works of Koelle. . . . An admirable addition to our knowledge is furnished by the English-Kanuri and Kanuri-English vocabularies.’—Journal of the African Society.

NOTES ON
SOME LANGUAGES OF
THE WESTERN SUDAN
(INCLUDING SOME UNPUBLISHED VOCABULARIES
AND CORRESPONDENCE OF DR. BARTH)
Oxford University Press. Price 7s. 6d. net
‘To the student these “Notes”, collected with infinite pains, will be found a mine of information and inspiration for future research.’—African Mail.
‘A new addition to linguistic learning, which will be necessary to other enquirers. . . . There is no reader who knows the writings of Richardson and Barth, or can see the romantic side of the contact of European and native in the Sudan, who will not derive pleasure from the volume.’—From a four-page review in Equatorial and North Africa as ‘The Book of the Week’.
‘A most valuable compilation, one certain to prove useful to the student of African exploration and philology alike.’—Journal of the African Society.
‘The value of Barth’s vocabularies to the student need not be emphasized. . . . The human side of a great achievement is clearly brought out.’—Journal of the Royal Geographical Society.
‘Je pense en avoir assez dit pour montrer l’intérêt que présente ce volume pour les questions qu’il soulève et les renseignements qu’il fournit.’—René Basset in Revue Critique.
‘An exceptionally complete linguistic study, stocked with philological, grammatical, and miscellaneous information. . . . The Hausa riddles and proverbs are a notable feature.’—Athenaeum.
