But the best thing about this very cheap though most awkward sized 

 six-pennyworth is-unexpectedly-its letterpress^ The author is no 

 named, but whoever he may be he knows his Wiltshire, and he knows it 

 up to date, and he not only knows it but he can wri e of it m a way 

 which it charming to read, without tall talk and without padding. It 

 seems hardly too much to say that this is the best short accoun of 

 Wiltshire-of the guide book type-that has yet been written It is a 

 pity that it should be mixed up with advertisements of outfitters and 

 family butchers. It gives a far truer and even fuller impression of 

 Wiltshire history, archeology, and architecture, than many far more 

 pretentious works.
