PREFACE. 



The author wishes to express his indebtedness to 

 his brother, Mr. T. M. S. English, to Mr. J. H. 

 Sussex Hall, and to Mr. Bernard Russell ; without 

 their ready and generous assistance much of the 

 photographic work hereafter described could never 

 have been accomplished ; also to Mr. Charles Job, 

 for permission to utilize, in illustration of the haunts 

 of British fauna, some examples of pictorial photo- 

 graphy whose excellence stands unrivalled.
