months — is one of the marvels of our time." — Atlienceiim. 



" A most beautiful example of fine drawing and skilful colouring, while the 

 letter-press furnished by the talented author possesses very high interest. Of 

 the species of Rhododendron which he has found in his adventurous journey, 

 some are quite unrivalled in magnificence of appearance." — Gardeners' Chronicle. 



SANDEES'S PEACTICAL TREATISE ON THE CULTURE 

 OF THE VINE. With plates. 8vo. 5s. 



" Mr. Assheton Smith's place at Tedworth has long possessed a great English 

 reputation for the excellence of its fruit and vegetables : one is continually hear- 

 ing in society of the extraordinary abundance and perfection of its produce at 

 seasons when common gardens are empty, and the great world seems to have 

 arrived at the conclusion that the kitchen gardening and forcing there are 

 nowhere excelled. We have, therefore, examined with no common interest the 

 work before us, for it will be strange indeed, if a man who can act so skilfully as 

 Mr. Sanders should be unable to ofter advice of corresponding value. We have 

 not been disappointed. Mr. Sanders's directions are as plain as words can make 

 them ; and, we will add, as judicious as his long experience had led us to expect. 

 After a careful perusal of his little treatise, we find nothing to object to, and 

 much to praise." — Gardeners' Chronicle. 



"A clever, w^ ell-written, and nicely illustrated horticultural pamphlet, telling 

 us all we want to know on the subject." — Guardian.

" The ' History of British Sea-weeds ' we can most faithfully recommend for 

 its scientific, its pictorial, and its popular value ; the professed botanist will find 

 it a work of the highest character, whilst those w^ho desire merely to know the 

 names and history of the lovely plants which they gather on the sea-shore, will 

 find in it the faithful portraiture of every one of them." — Annals a?id 3Iagazine 

 of Natiiral History . 



" The drawings are beautifully executed by the author himself on stone, the 

 dissections carefully prepared, and the whole account of the species drawn up in 

 such a way as cannot fail to be instructive, even to those who are well acquainted 

 with the subject. The greater part of our more common Algse have never been 

 illustrated in a manner agreeable to the present state of Algology." — Gardeners' 

 Chronicle.
