BOOKS ON NATURAL HISTORY. 
THE VERTEBRATE FAUNA OF SCOTLAND. 
Edited by J. A. Harviz-Brown. 
‘We receive few books that are so grateful alike to the eye and sense as the sage-green 
octavos of Scottish zoological geography which come to us, one after another, from 
Mr. Douglas. In welcoming this delightful Vertebrate Fawna of the Orkney Islands, we 
feel but one regret, the worlds which are left for Messrs. Buckley and Harvie-Brown to 
conquer are growing very few. . . . We know not how to approach them. Are we to 
urge them on upon their splendid enterprise, or to hold them back, that our pleasure 
may be drawn out the longer? The same plan is pursued as in the previous volumes 
of this admirable series. A detailed physical geography of the islands precedes the 
catalogue raisonné of the species and habitats. Even to those, therefore, who have little 
zoological curiosity or knowledge, this book must be of unusual importance, if the reader 
has an interest in the provinces described,”—Saturday Review.
