THE COUNTRY GENTLEMAN'S 

 LIBRARY OF AMUSING READING. 



inna 



This iniinitnble scries of volumes is absolutely unique, there being noth 

 approaching to them in all the wide range of modern or ancient literature. 

 Written by Air. Surtees, a well-known country gentleman, who was passion- 

 ately devoted to the healthy sport of fox-hunting, and gifted with a keen 

 spirit of manly humour of a liabelaisian tinge, they abound with incidents 

 redolent of mirth and jollity. The artist, Mr. Leech, was himself also au 

 enthusiast in the sport, and has reflected in his illustrations, with instinctive 

 appreciation, the rollicking abandon of the author's stories.
