SOME PRESS OTINIONS. 



The Sportsman. — "A more delightful book — nay, so delightful a book — is not 

 met with once in a generation. It is sui gejicris ; we know of none that can 

 pretend to compare with it. There is not a line in it that cannot be read with 

 pleasure, while the whole volume contains such a record of interesting and thrilling 

 adventure as one rarely meets with." 



The Field. — "The story is told with great animation throughout, and with a 

 sense of humour that carries one on attentively to the end. We shall be much 

 mistaken if this very attractive volume on big-game shooting is not soon in a 

 second edition." 



The Alhe>Z(^um.—" Tha.t most attractive book, 'Two Dianas in Somaliland,' 

 which shows the author to be almost as skilful with her pen as with the rifle; and 

 that is saying a great deal. The book is exceptionally interesting." 



The County Gentleman. — "Miss Herbert's light, breezy style in dealing with the 

 humours of camp life is highly entertaining. We have never read a more piquantly 

 written narrative of big-game shooting." 



Country Life. — "This sprightly and amusing book, full of wild life and adventure, 

 of difficulties and dangers pluckily overcome, is a welcome change after the 

 innumerable recitals of 'mere man' in Africa." 



The World. — "Miss Herbert wields her pen to good purpose. She has a keen 

 sense of humour, she goes straight to the point, she scorns padding in purple 

 patches, and yet so vivid is her style that she at once interests the reader in her 

 subject. No man, and few women, will fail to follow her to the end of her 

 adventures." 



The Daily News. — "Certain to receive a friendly welcome from the general 

 reader. A keen eye for the humorous side of things, a fluent and lively pen, and 

 occasionally the display of a somewhat caustic wit, make the volume most amusing 

 reading. We congratulate the authoress on the lively narrative. One can only 

 hope that she will once again go a-hunting, and once again tell its story." 



The Daily Telegraph. — "This finely-printed and well-illustrated volume is a 

 thoroughly entertaining and amusing record. Every sportsman will find this brisk 

 and vivacious narrative to his taste." 



The Daily Mail. — " ' Two Dianas in Somaliland ' is a book out of the common 

 run . . . very attractive reading." 



The Scotsman. — "Certainly no one who reads this narrative will fail to be 

 keenly interested and amused." 



The Daily Chronicle. — "You need not be a sportsman — or a sportswoman — to 

 enjoy this book, because it has a vivacity which would carry any reader along. It 

 is written with the merry heart that goes all the day, and it has much to record 

 besides lion killing." 



The Evening Standard. — "We are sure that no such story was ever related with 

 greater charm or incisiveness. The volume is very welcome." 



Pall Mall Gazette. — " The book proved of such interest to the present reviewer 

 that he found himself in the small hours closing the volume with regret. Miss 

 Herbert's book is well worth reading." 



The Spectator. — "Chivalry and fair criticism alike force us to give the place of 

 honour among recent sporting books to the 'Two Dianas.' We are captivated in 

 spite of ourselves. By the time the most prejudiced reader gets to the end he will 

 admit that he has been well entertained."
