ACADEMY. "In the present delightful volumes, however, he pre- 

 sents all lovers of Scotland with the completest details of every High- 

 land sport, on all of which he is an unexceptionable authority ; and 

 with what many will value even more, a series of life-like sketches 

 of the rarer and more interesting animals of the country. He has 

 thus brought up to the present level of knowledge the history of all 

 the scarce birds and beasts of Scotland Henceforth it must neces- 

 sarily find a place in the knapsack of every northern tourist who is 

 fond of our wild creatures, and is simply indispensable in every 

 Scotch shooting-lodge." 



SATURDAY REVIEW. "We should recommend fishers to study 

 carefully all the chapters on fishing for salmon, loch trout, sea trout, 

 and yellow trout, whatever may be their experience or erudition. 

 They will find general hints of immense use which they can apply 

 to that local knowledge of their own river or ' water ' which no books 

 can teach, and which Mr Colquhoun himself would equally have to 

 learn. But no chapter ought to be skipped, even by a reader who 

 aspires to far less than the fourfold distinction of a Highland hunter, 

 which consists in killing a red-deer, an eagle, a salmon, and a seal." 



THE WORLD. " The book is one written by a gentleman for gentle- 

 men, healthy in tone, earnest in purpose, and as fresh, breezy, and 

 life-giving as the mountain air of the hills amongst which the sport 

 it chronicles is carried on."
