    “ Dr. Burrell always sounds a bugle-call to high emprise. This one will stir whatever of knighthood is active or latent in the heart of the young man who reads it.”—John Bancroft Divins, Editor New York “Observer. THE LURE OF THE CITY By DAVID JAMES BURRELL, D.D., LL D. Pastor of the Marble Collegiate Church New York City Addrest to “the youth whose lot is cast in the city or whose heart is turned that way; who knows himself a man, and with eyes aloft means to make himself a better one; who plans a full equipment, that he may win splendidly.”—From the Preface. “ I have seldom had more pleasure than I have found in reading Dr. Burrell’s strong and suggestive book. It is a book for the present hour and the present age. In a style singularly lucid and wonder- fully attractive, Dr. Burrell sets forth the dangers of the city on the one hand and its advantages on the other. Each of the twenty-two chapters might stand by itself as a word of cheer, a bugle call or a warning. The epithet most suitable to the book, as a whole, is * sane. * Nothing is overstrained. Everything is practical, and the book is thoroughly manly, and is infused throughout with the author’s vigorous and winning personality. It is emphatically a book for the young man.—Margaret E.
