THE ILLUSTRATED EXHIBITOR aims to be a permanent and valuable record of the International Exhibition of 1862. It contains pictures of all the principal objects of interest in the building, many of them taken from photographs, or from drawings furnished by the exhibitors themselves. We have thus, we trust, secured the greatest amount of accuracy in detail combined with general beauty of effect. The ILLUSTRATED EXHIBITOR will be found both useful and ornamental-a volume sufficiently elegant in appearance to adorn the drawing-room table, and of a character not unfitting it to take its place, among works of reference, in the bookcase or on the shelves of the library. No pains have been spared to render it as complete, and at the same time as interesting, as possible. Irrespective of its engravings-no small or unimportant element of its success-it contains a descriptive account of the rise, progress, and completion of the Exhibition, with views and plans of the building itself, and such remarks as seemed necessary to a fair understanding of the great scheme enunciated in 1850 by the late Prince Consort, and carried forward in 1862 by the Royal Commissioners. We have done our best to produce a book that will pleasantly remind visitors of the glories of the World's Fair at South Kensington, while at the same time it will give to many who were not fortunate enough to witness those glories for themselves, a good notion of the general aspect of the structure and its unequalled contents. As regards the influence for good attending periodical exhibitions of the world's progress in arts and manufactures there can be no cavil; of the immense social and political importance of these gatherings of the peoples there is no longer any question; of the improvements, inventions, and discoveries that result from the inquiry and competition awakened in the breasts of scholars, manufacturers, and artisans there remains, we believe, no manner of doubt. These questions admitted, there can be no hesitation in also conceding that the publication of a volume like this must result in a large amount of positive benefit to its readers.
