 DESERT ISLANDS 



By PERCY R. LOWE. B.A., M.B., M.B.O.U. 



Being an account of visits to some Desert 



Islands of the Caribbean Sea in 



Sir Frederic Johnstone's Yacht 



" Zenaida." 



THE TIMES (Literary Supplement) says: *'0f 

 books of the season devoted avowedly to Natural 

 History perhaps we should place first 'A 

 Naturalist on Desert Islands,' which is the 



pleasantest of reading the enthusiasm of 



the bird's-nesting boy turned loose in Robinson 

 Crusoe Land who, beset with spiders' webs and 

 cactus spines, and /'Ctes rouges, only grows happier 

 the more he perspires and the greater his 

 discomfort." 



MANCHESTER COURIER says: ** We can 

 truthfully say that Mr. Lowe has written a book 

 which is packed with good things ; in many parts 

 it is perfectly fascinating."
