SUGAR

“Miss Browne ... gives a singularly full and an exceedingly interestingaccount of the cultivation of the sugar-cane and the sugar-beet in variouscountries of the world. This is followed by a lucid account of the making, theexporting, and the refining of sugar.... Twenty-six instructive photographs,excellently reproduced, embellish and add value to the book.”—EducationalNews.

“This first volume is certainly a happy beginning. Miss Browne writesfrom first-hand knowledge, and she describes the life of the sugar from theDemerara plantations to the tea-table. The illustrations add to the charmof the work.”—Manchester Courier.

RUBBER

“It is interestingly written, free from technicalities, and excellently illustrated.Those who wish for a 'peep’ at this all-important industry—which,in spite of ever-recurring discoveries of 'artificial rubber,’ is likely to continueall-important—cannot do better than read this little book.”—MorningPost.

“The twenty-four excellent illustrations add considerably to the value ofthe book, which is heartily recommended to anyone desiring a non-technicalaccount of rubber production”—Nature.

TEA

“It would be difficult to produce a more comprehensive or more charminglyinteresting story of a world’s great commodity. The work is a result of experience,observation, information, and illustration obtained on the spot, and,as such, is remarkable value at the price.”—Schoolmaster.

“An interesting little book ... the author has introduced the minimumof technicalities, and gives the maximum of information.”—EducationalNews.
