Book Review.

The West End Publishing Company have issued a new number of their pocket Compass Guide for Boston and vicinity. It is a useful hand book of information, containing full details of all the horse car routes of the West End company, including a time table and distance schedules; railway stations alphabetically classified with times of departure and arrival, trains, fares and distances; location of express offices, post-offices, fire-alarm stations, etc.; list of churches, banks, public buildings, houses and apartment houses. Such a compendium of full, useful information is at all moments handy, and the plan upon which this one is arranged is an additional recommendation on account of its conciseness, its clearness, and its accuracy. Primarily intended for business men its value to all who live in or near Boston, including Harvard students is obvious. (West End Publishing Company, 266 Washington St., Boston).
