" This book ought to be largely circulated, not only on account of its scientific merits 

 though these, as we have in part shewn, are great and signal but because it is popularly 

 written throughout, and therefore likely to excite general attention to a subject which ought 

 to be held as one of primary importance. Every one is interested about fishes the political 

 economist, the epicure, the merchant, the man of science, the angler, the poor, the rich. 

 We hail the appearance of this book as the dawn of a new era in the Natural History of 

 England." Quarterly Review, No. 116.

" Every branch of art or manufacture has had its guide, or its catechism, or its alphabet, 

 and so on ; but the art of netting seems, by some accident, to have entirely escaped the 

 notice of the press ; although, in truth, it is the art which furnishes us with much whole- 

 some food through its immediate instrumentality, urges men to industry, and can be prac- 

 tised without any very great outlay of capital to the maker." Extract from Preface.
