" A pleasant and admirable book .... Mr. Knight Horsfield writes very charmingly a 

 much more in the style of Richard Jefferies than of the late Professor Newton. .... The book 

 is excellently illustrated by photographs by that close observer and student of bird-life, Mr. T. A. 

 Metcalfe, and others. They absolutely justify the remark of the author that 'in many cases they 

 show phases of bird-life rarely to be witnessed, and have been obtained under conditions which may 

 never recur.' " — Country Life. 



" The text combines in an unusual degree familiar description with scientific knowledge. . . 

 The book is one that will be eagerly welcomed." — Glasgow Herald. 



" A wholly delightful book, as conspicuous for its close and sympathetic observation as for its 

 graceful and scholarly style."- The Bulivark. 



" Splendidly illustrated." — Scotsman. 



London: EVERETT & Co., 42 Essex Street, W.C- 



The ScoismaJi says : — ' Highly entertaining-, and pleasantly blended with learn- 

 ing and culture. A delightful book for the holiday season and for 

 lovers of nature and rural life.'
