" The charming book now before us ... . The lively pages of this graphic and 

 ■well-illustrated volume .... We know of no book where that beautiful family, the 

 Sea-Anemones, are more graphically described and brought before the eye of the 

 reader." — Fraser's Magazine, Oct. 1S53, ^ 



" This charming volume, which we so strongly recommend to our readers .... 

 largely enters into the private history [of the Sea-Anemones and other Zoophytes], 

 and to the attractions of an engaging style and healthy piety, adds the accompani- 

 ment of elaborately coloured drawings of the animals themselves." — Leisure Hour, 

 Feb. 9, 1854. 



"Scarcely have we pronounced a most favourable opinion oi Mr. Gosse's ' Natu- 

 ralist's Sojourn in Jamaica' than we are called upon to review another book from 



the same pen, equally beautiful, equally amusing, and equally instructive 



This is a fit companion to the ' Sojourn; * like that, it is a series of picturas which 

 it must delight the lover of nature to look upon .... the animals of tne sea are 

 here revealed to us in all their most attractive forms." — Zoologist, Oct. 1853. 



" The present will ably support the previous character of its talented author." 

 — Natural History Review, Jan. 1854.
