BENDERLOCH. 



BY W. ANDERSON SMITH. 



Opinions of the Press. 



'TIMES." While Mr. Anderson Smith does not neglect the scenic aspects of 

 Nature, he devotes most of his space to sympathetic pictures of the life that 

 abounds on land and in sea. He is evidently a well-informed naturalist. 



'MORNING POST." The lovers of natural history will be charmed with 

 this interesting book. Mr. Smith is equally entertaining and instructive. 



'SATURDAY REVIEW. "-There can be no manner of doubt that these 

 "unpretending notes," as Mr. Smith modestly designates them, were well 

 worth reprinting ; amd we should have lost much had they been left buried 

 out of memory. 



' THE FIELD." The interest is continuous to the close. His style is lively, 

 without any affectation of fine writing. 



'THE ACADEMY." We cannot fancy a book which would prove more use- 

 ful and interesting to every poet-naturalist who uses his eyes and ears. 

 " Benderloch " is, in many respects, a charming book. 



'GRAPHIC. "-Had Gilbert -\Vhite lived beside Eenderloch, he would have 

 given us something very like Mr. Anderson Smith's " Notes from the 

 Western Highlands." 



'DAILY REVIEW." The "Notes" will be read by few people by whom 

 they will not be enjoyed. 



'GLASGOW HERALD." Almost every page shows how much a loving, 

 patient, and intelligent searcher can find worth noting in the commonest 

 natural phenomena, and how much interest can be thrown round such re- 

 searches, or even the most casual observations, by the manner in which they 

 are described. 



'QUIZ." I admire Mr. Smith's style ; you seldom see such pure English in a 



'EDINBURGH COURANT." The papers are very attractive. 



DUNDEE ADVERTISER."-Mr. Smith thoroughly understands his matter, 

 and he writes so freshly that the work will be found a pleasant guide to the 

 Fauna of the West Highlands. 



' BRECHIN ADVERTISER." Hundreds who never had the opportunity of 

 reading them before will join in expressing to Mr. Smith their obligations 

 for putting within their reach such a series of sketches, hardly excelled in 

 interest by anything of the same kind known to us at the present time. 



'OBAN TIMES." There is all the grace and attractiveness of a racy and 

 full style wedded to a fund of information.
