EXPERT OPINIONS 



"Too much praise cannot be 

 bestowed upon the author for the 

 able and delightful manner in which 

 he deals with his subject. . . . 'British 

 Mammals' is a book which naturalists 

 will handle with pleasure and satis- 

 faction, and which those who are not 

 naturalists will read with eagerness 

 and profit." Birmingham Post. 



" A very worthy addition to the 

 Library of which it forms a volume." 

 Westminster Gazette. 



"Full of information and in- 

 terst. " Scotsman. 



" A very authoritative treatise. 

 . . . The book must, in the natural 

 course of things, take its place in the 

 library of standard scientific works." 

 Sportsman. 



" The best work of reference on 

 the British Mammals that has yet 

 been printed." Outlook. 



" A valuable contribution to this 

 branch of literature . . . handsome 

 in appearance, beautifully printed." 

 Pall Mall Gazette. 



" The treatment is thoroughly 

 scientific ; and although the ordinary 

 reader will always be able to follow 

 the author without difficulty, the 

 student will find the book an authori- 

 tative treatise on the subject." 

 Notts Guardian.
