" ' The Collie or Sheepdog ' is a sufficiently well known and popular animal to render a history 

 and description of the British varieties of the species a welcome addition to the library of the dog 

 fancier. Mr. Rawdon Lee publishes a volume dealing with the subject, which is issued by Mr. 

 Horace Cox at the Field Office. Much information as to the breeding and points of the dog is given, 

 together with an exhaustive account of competitive trials, of which the writer has a large experience. 

 It is needless to say that anecdotes as to the sagacity of the collie are numerous." Morning Post, 



" The subject of the present volume is the ever-popular collie, which is treated in the same attrac- 

 tive manner as the previous work. It breathes of the hills, and living as Mr. Lee did for so many 

 years in Westmoreland, he can transfer to his pages many interesting reminiscences of the sheepdog 

 as a worker, comparing him with the collie in the more refined period of his life. The initial 

 chapters are excellent reading, and the author has displayed considerable skill in them, bringing as 

 he does the testimonies of poets and of painters, of shepherds and of breeders." Fancier's Gazette, 

 ]uly 18, 1890. 



" Mr. Lee's book, filled as it is with accurate information as to the various strains and valuable 

 suggestions as to their rearing and management, is a manual which to all collie owners or collie 

 breeders is likely to be highly serviceable." Saturday Re-view, May 16, 1891.

" This edition of 'The Dogs of the British Islands ' contains so much fresh matter that it may 

 be almost considered a new work. To breeders and lovers of dogs the book is an invaluable one- 

 Here are all the discussions upon moot points of breed, strain, colour, size, and form, which have 

 taken place in the columns of the Field since 1865 ; here the law for judging dogs, and the number of 

 marks to be awarded for the various points are clearly laid down : here the specialities of the most 

 celebrated sires of various species are talked over, and the history, so to speak, of each breed of dog 

 is given. To this are added directions for the management and treatment of dogs in health and in 

 sickness. Altogether it is a <vade mecum for the dog fancier and breeder." Evening Standard.
