" It is a very clever record of a year's observations round the bungalow 



in ' Dustypore.' . . . . It is by no means a mere travesty 



The writer is always amusing, and never dull." — Field. 



" The book is cleverly illustrated by Mr. F. C. Macrae. We have only 

 to thank our Anglo-Indian naturalist for the delightful book which he has 

 sent home to his countrymen in Britain. May he live to give us another 

 such." — Chambers' Journal. 



" A most charming series of sprightly and entertaining essays on what 



may be termed the fauna of the Indian bungalow We have 



no doubt that this amusing book will find its way into every Anglo-Indian's 

 library." — Allen's Indian Mail. 



" This is a delightful book, irresistibly fuimy in description and illustra- 

 tion, but full of genuine science too There is not a dull or 



uninstructive page in the whole book." — Knowledge, 



"It is a pleasantly-written book about the insects and other torments of 

 India which make Anglo-Indian life unpleasant, and which can be read 

 with pleasure even by those beyond the reach of the tormenting things 

 * Eha ' describes." — Graphic. 



" The volume is full of accurate and unfamiliar observation, and the 

 illustrations prove to be by no means without their value." — Saturday
