Half-Hours at the Seaside. Illustrated with 250 Woodcuts. Fourth 

 Edition. Crown 8vo, 2s. 6d. 

 *' The love of natural history has now become bo prevalent, at least among purely 

 English readers, that wc hardly meet a family at the seaside one of whose members 

 has not some little knowledge of the wonders of the deep. Now, of course, this love 

 of marine zoology is being vastly increased by the existence of the valuable aquaria 

 at the Crystal Palace and at Brighton. Still, however, notwithstandiag the amount 

 of admirable works on the subject, more especially the excellent treatises of Gosse 

 and others, there was wanted a cheap form of book with good illustrations which 

 should give a clear account of the ordinary creatures one meets with on the sands 

 and in the rock pools. The want no longer exists, for the excellent little manual that 

 now lies before us embraces all that could be desired by those who are entirely ignorant 

 of the subject of seaside zoology, while its mode of arrangement and woodcuts, which 

 are carefiUIy drawn, combine to render it both attractive and useful."— Po^u^ar
