 depended entirely on its letterpress for success, it would be 

 welcomed as an addition to English literature. It is more 

 ttian an accurate and comprehensive description of all the

 an introduction to them and their haunts, so enticingly 

 written that the reader at once falls in love with them and 

 becomes an enthusiast in their pursuit."

 flow of language that carries us along from a ' May day ' to a 

 ' winter mood ' in a thoroughly sustained eflSort."
