ISraORSEBSEKTS, 



Sportsman's Gazetteer —Geo. Bird Grinneil, of 

 the Peabody Academy of Science, New Haven, 

 writes: "I have to thank you for a copy of the 

 Spoilsman's Gazetteer received day before yester- 

 day, I have delayed acknowledging it, in order thai 

 I might be able to speak intelligently of its merits 

 I have looked it over somewhat carefully, and I must 

 say that I am delighted with it. It seems to be just 

 the book that we have so long wanted in this coun- 

 try—an American " St .nehenge " in fact. On the 

 fishes yon have surpassed yourself, and I am asron 

 ished at the amount of material you have collected 

 and the happy method in which you have treated 

 the group. The Dog and Disea.-es of the Dog are ad- 

 mirably written, and will prove one of the most use- 

 ful of manual* for sportsmen. The Art of Fly Fish- 

 ing, and the bints and lecipes are all that could be 

 desired ; in fact the book seems to be a com lete 

 success, f do not see ho,\ it can fail to : ave a verv 

 large sale." 



The Sportsman's Gazetteer.— The Gazefte* 

 duly came to hand, and to sav that I am deli git 1 

 with the book only faintly expresses my apprecia- 

 tion of it. How you have been able to gatner so 

 much valuable matter together is almo-t a mystery 

 tome. Itcertamlv speaks well for y. ur industry 

 and knowledge of the ub-jects d - ■;_•_.[ i 

 Bizs and valuable intyrhiaUon contained, the price. I 

 think, is r. mi' fca'dy [o% and I wou'd 'not be with- 

 out it for double the price. Every sportsman and 

 everybody interested in sporting matters should 

 have a copy, and I s all take great pleasure in re- 

 commending it to mv army friends. 



II. C. Yarrow, M. D., XT. S. A. 



The Gazetteer,— The Sportsman's Gazetteer was 

 duly received, and myself and many f our best 

 judges in spurting literature have cr.tica'lv exam- 

 ined the book, and all u ite in pronouncing it the 

 most valuable work ever issued irom tne press on 

 kindred subjects. It is a wonder to all how so much 

 valuable information could be so intelligently crowd- 

 ed into a book ot its size. The -ask must have been 

 very grea\ bu' bus been accomplished in a remarka- 

 bly concise, intelligent and pleasing manner. Every 

 page demonstrates the fact that the author was a 

 master of hissubjict. No so rtsman or tourist can 

 afford to be wituout the book, and it ouglr to be, and 

 no doubt will be. read generally hy the masses, and 

 certainly by all interested in the 'study of natu a! 

 hl-tory. dr. D*. C. Estes.
