WILD FRUITS 

 OF THE 

 COUNTRY SIDE 



With 36 Coloured Plates by 

 the Author, and an Intro- 

 duction by His Grace the 

 Duke of Bedford 



' ' A charming book, copiously illustrated 

 with very attractive drawings. ... A 

 very pleasing and interesting volume." — 

 Spectator. 



" If each volume is as ably and carefully 

 •written and illustrated as the one before us, 

 the series will prove a distinct acquisition 

 both to the student and to the ordinary 

 lover of nature. The subject is treated 

 quite exhaustively, and yet in such a 

 pleasant and colloquial manner that the 

 reader is apt to forget that he is perusing 

 a really scientific work on natural history." 

 — World. 



"A very attractive book." — Times. 



BUTTERFLIES AND 

 MOTHS OF THE 

 COUNTRY SIDE 



With 35 Coloured Plates by 

 the Author, and an Intro- 

 duction by His Grace the 

 Duke of Bedford 



" A treatise of a very high order, 

 interesting alike to scientific and non- 

 scientific minds, and forming a most 

 valuable addition to the library of any 

 lover of nature. Professor Hulme's work 

 has been excellently done, alike in the 

 letterpress and the illustrations. These 

 latter are an attraction in themselves. . . . 

 No pains have been spared to ensure 

 accuracy in the presentment of the various 

 insects, and the result is a display of colour- 

 printing of which we have rarely seen the 

 equal." — Biriiiingham Post. 



"A work which will meet with the 

 approval of every nature-lover." — Man- 

 chester Courief. 



ANNOUNCEMENT 



The next volume to be published in this Library will be a companion 

 volume to Sir Herbert Maxwell's " Fresh- Water Fishes," entitled 



SALT=WATER FISHES 



BY 



F. G. AFLALO WM, SENIOR 



Author of ''Sea Fish" Editor of "The Field" 



F. B. MARSTON 



Editor of " The Fishing Gazette " 



With many Coloured Plates, etc. 



There is probably no greater practical authority on our British Salt-Water Fishes in 

 general than Mr. Aflalo ; his subject is a wider one than Sir Herbert Maxwell's, and 

 even more debatable ; but there can be no question on one point, and that is the 

 author's ability to write simply and accurately on a subject which he has made peculiarly 

 his own. It would be difficult to think of any other name which would carry the same 

 weight beneath a similar title. [In the press,
