“‘The book is as well executed as it is well timed. The deserip- 
tions are scientific as well as popular, and the plates are clear and 
explicit. Not only the forms, but the uses of Algz, are minutely 
described. It is a worthy sea-side companion—a handbook for 
every occasional or permanent resident on the sea-shore.”’— 
Economist. 
‘‘A work of much general interest, and one which every 
dweller by the sea-side, who makes a right use of his eyes, would 
do well to procure.”—Edinburgh Witness. 
‘*Mr. Landsborough’s very beautiful volume is meant for young

loured plates, executed in a superb style.”—Glasgow Daily Mail. 
“‘ Profusely illustrated with specimens of the various Sea-weeds, 
beautifully drawn and exquisitely coloured.”—Sun. 
“This elegant work, though intended for beginners, is well 
worthy the perusal of those advanced in the science.”—Morning 
Herald. 
“Those who desire to make themselves acquainted with British 
Sea-weeds, cannot do better than begin with this elegantly illus- 
trated manual.”—Globe.
