PRESS OPINIONS. 



Literary World. " To the list of books on big game shooting that can be 

 commended equally to the sportsman and the general reader must be added this 

 truly fascinating work. We have read it through from cover to cover, and 

 pronounce it excellent." 



Academy. " Search where we will through this entertaining book, we always 

 happen upon sound literature, fine description, good natural history, and lively 

 adventure. The author is clearly in love with his subject, and the pictures of 

 jungle scenery and jungle life are wonderfully vivid ... in all respects a first- 

 rate book." 



Daily Mail. "Extremely interesting . . . the narrative is fresh and 

 engrossing." 



Athenceum. "As sound and readable a book of its class as we have seen for 

 many a day." 



Daily News. " A book full of stirring incidents and bright description . . . 

 always compelling interest . . . some excellent illustrations. " 



Sportsman. " Aptly named, brightly written, and lavishly illustrated, 

 Capt. Glasfurd's sketch of the life of a tiger makes fascinating reading, and so 

 does much else we might say all of the volume." 



Daily Graphic. " Capt. Glasfurd_ handles the pen as deftly as he does the 

 gun, and has the gift of depicting in singularly vivid language the life of the 

 jungle which he knows so intimately. . . . Thus it will be seen that his book 

 belongs to a different category from those monotonous records of big game 

 slaughter which form the bulk of works on Indian sport." 



Truth. " Both the scenes and incidents of the Captain's sporting adventures 

 are excellently described and profusely illustrated." 



Saturday Review. " There is a freshness and vigour about ' Rifle and 

 Romance in the Indian Jungle' which lifts it well above the ordinary chronicle 

 of the big game shooter."

Globe. "We have found Mr. Boraston's book bright, pleasant entertainment. 

 . . . Mr. Lane has printed and bound his work most charmingly." 



Literary World. " It is a long time since we had in front of us a book so 

 broadly attractive ... a book that is but meagrely described by being called 

 a feast for lovers of ornithology. . . . We particularly wish to call the attention 

 of ornithologists, parents, and schoolmasters to this charming book." 



Morning Leader. " Mr. Boraston's delightful book . . . the manner in 

 which the book is produced could hardly be improved upon." 



Athenavtn. "The illustrations, exceeding sixty in number, are, in most 

 instances, so exquisite that it is difficult to select any for individual praise."
