" Most naturalists express a great deal of anxiety that their children should take up the study that 

 gives them so much pleasure, yet it is well-known how few do so. If they would put your books 

 Random Recollections of Woodland, Fen, and Hill, and Woodside, Biirnside, tiilhide and Marsh into 

 their children's hands, I have no doubt a very large number of the more intelligent of them would become 

 interested in the pursuit, and in time take more seriously to the study of natural history. Besides, the 

 plates and wood-cuts in your last work make it eminently 6tted for a gift book." — (in Hit.)

" How many there are who cross the marshes without seeing a heron, a kingfisher, or an otter, who 

 would miss the wild duck's nest, who would take no account at all of the caterpillars that crowd the 

 branches of the willow trees. It is mainly for the want of training. Most of us would like to watch the 

 jay and the squirrel, the dragonfly and the hawk moth. There are few who cannot appreciate 

 the beauty of the bee-orchis when the flower is shown them, even though they may have passed it by un- 

 noticed. The keen observer who finds these things for himself is rare. . . . To everyone who cares 

 to know something of the delight which a little training may add to a country walk, a book like this 

 will be a real boon. It is not often the reviewer's lot to find a title so exactly descriptive of a book ; nor 

 does one often meet with a volume containing such a wealth of rural lore. Follow the writer where you 

 will, you will find him overflowing with interest — at times, perhaps, even too full of information. Mr. Tutt 

 is at his best when he is talking of insect life. . . . But although it is easy — even without considering 

 the writer's previous works — to trace his leaning towards entomology, we can also see how deeply a 

 student of one branch of natural history may become imbued with at least a liking for kindred subjects, 

 and there is almost as much of birds and flowers in the book as there is about moths and butter, 

 flies. . . . His would be a captious soul who should fail to recognise in this little volume an admirable 

 companion for a country walk. It is a book from which he who will may learn what to look for, 

 and, to some extent, how to see things for himself— may, perhaps, in time be drawn to ' wander away, with 

 Nature, the dear old nurse — 



' Into regions yet untrod ; 

 And read what still is unread 

 In the manuscripts of God.'"

Random Recollections of Woodland, Fen & Hill 



By J. W. TUTT, F.E.S. 



A series of articles dealing with the wanderings and observations of a Field Naturalist. 

 BOUND IN CLOTH, PRICE Ss. 



" Another book that invites us with no uncertain charm into the open air and tar from populous 

 towns, is Random Recollections of M'oodland. Fen and Hill, though Mr. Tutt's themes are of course; 

 mainly of scientific interest, and such as appeal to the young and zealous entomologist. Moths and butter- 

 flies are the objects of Mr. Tutt's open-air studies, as recorded in this interesting book, and the varied ! 

 results of an old campaigner among field naturalists are therein gathered. There is nothing that savours; 

 of the cabinet and its pungent odours abouf these vivid and entertaining recollections of an experienced 

 entomologist, and much that is of interest to the general reader, with still more that is likely to prove 

 useful to the collector who does his own collecting." — Saturday Review. Feb. 17th, 1894, 



" Under the title of Random Recollections of Woodland, Fen and Hill, Mr. J. \V. Tutt has just 

 published a capital little book, which ought to be put into the hands of every schoolboy who has any 

 inclination towards an interest in natural science. We should think it impossible for such a one to read 

 through it and not have those leanings very considerably strengthened. The author is a keen and 

 enthusiastic field naturalist, and in the book he takes the reader with him on nine of his holiday excur- 

 sions, and in a chatty and humorous, yet fascinating way, he lays before him the various scientific 01 

 philosophical questions relating to lepidoptera, which are so largely engaging the attention of entomologists 

 at the present day. It is long time since we read a book of its kind with more pleasure." — The Naturalist. 

 March, 1894.
