SOME PRESS OPINIONS. 



The Sportsman. — "The warm and lengthy praise we gave to the companion 

 volume ' Two Dianas in Somaliland ' might be repeated. They should have a 

 place in every sportsman's library ; nay, in far more, for the piquancy of the style, 

 and the charming friendliness of it all, enthral the reader. " 



The Field. — "The story is told by Miss Herbert with all t' e free and joyous spirit 

 which characterised her former volume; the same love of exploration, admiration 

 for the beauty in nature, keenness for sport, and withal a womanly restraint and 

 tender-heartedness. " 



Country Life. — "Miss Herbert's hand has lost nothing of its sprightliness, she 

 describes graphically and with never failing nerve many exciting hunts. It is to 

 the full as daring and lively as the Somaliland volume." 



Vanity Fair. — "The most fascinating sporting book I have read this year, and 

 quite the best written. In a dozen ways I found the book captivating. Miss 

 Herbert's success is as emphatic in book-making as in hunting." 



The Academy. — " We commend ' Two Dianas in Alaska' to many readers . . . 

 an amusing and picturesque journey. Scenery is powerfully described, and so are 

 the effects of light and shade and the flight of birds. But the ways of the moose 

 provide the most attractive reading of all." 



The Daily Telegraph. — "This is a delightful book, of equal interest to the 

 sportsman and the general reader. Light and bright are the pages. We heartily 

 recommend this book to all readers. It is all admirable." 



Ladies' Field. — "Not less delightful than 'Two Dianas in Somaliland.' If 

 anyone turns aside from this book because he or she is indifTerent to sport they will 

 lose some very pleasant hours. It is a charming book, and has not a dull page in it 

 from first to last." 



Daily Graphic. — " The whole book is amazing good reading. The best book of 

 sport and travel that we have seen this season." 



Yorkshire Post. — "This is a book of high spirits, mixed with philosophy. In 

 these prosaic days a romance from real life is not to be resisted." 



The Queen. — " Very entertaining reading. It must not be thought that the work 

 is entirely devoted to hunting, the scenery, places, and human beings are also 

 described in very happy fashion." 



The Morning Post. — "This delightful book. Lively is a poor name for it, it 

 scintillates with life. We are soon carried away with the zest of it, and the irre- 

 pressible humour which bubbles out on every page." 



The Manchester Courier. — "Those who had the good fortune to encounter the 

 charming record of the 'Two Dianas in Somaliland' will want no recommendation 

 to the equally sprightly description of their adventures in Al.iska. Miss Herbert 

 has a ready sense of humour, and her wayside jottings are inimitable." 



Fortnightly Rcz'iew. — " Miss Herbert has a happy knack of amusing the reader 

 on almost every page of her bright narrative, and this alone places her above the 

 majority of writers on travel. It is with her asides, her not unkindly satire, her 

 unabated philosophy, that Miss Herbert attracts the reader. " 



Pall Mall Gazette. — "Miss Herbert has a pretty wit, word-pictures of magic 

 beauty. The book is witty, picturesque, exciting, and the effect on the tired brain 

 of a dweller in cities is that of a breeze bringing health from a salutary land."
