 SOME PRESS OPINIONS OF "AUTUMNAL LEAVES." 



SPECTATOR : — '■ This cliarmingly-ilhistrated volume will delight many eyes." 



SATURDAY REVIEW: — "The present charming volume is in eveiy way 

 attractive." 



HARPER'S MAGAZINE: — " Perhaps the most novel and pleasing of all the 

 numerous books Mr. Francis George Heath has written." 



GlTJEEN : — " Mr. Heath's writings on the poetry of forest and field are fascinating 

 in the highest degree. 'Autumnal Leaves' stands unrivalled." 



PALIj MALIi GAZETTE: — "The coloured representations of various autumn 

 leaves have been produced with immense care and marvellous accuracy. . . . The 

 result is a facsimile — as perfect, perhaps, as imitative art could make it — of every 

 detail in the original foliage. . . . Mr. Heath is above all things a master of word 

 painting, who can make minute and deft description do duty instead of palette and 

 colour-box in a way that is quite surprising for its vivid and graphic effect." 



TABLET : — " Mr. Heath has now passed from the tender blooms of spring to the 

 sunset-dyed glories of autumn ; but we recognise in the book before us the mind of 

 long ago. There is the same tender regard for all that in nature lives ; the same keen 

 insight for revealing wonders unseen by the casual passer-by ; the same power of 

 holding his readers' deepest attention ; and the same gift of adoi^ning each subject to 

 which he sets his hand."
