recognise the many beauties of Surrey. Woking may not itself be very beautiful, 
nor, with the exceptions of Sutton Place, Newark Abbey, and Ockham Church, 
is there much of archaeological interest in its immediate neighbourhood. But the 
wide stretches of heather and pine wood have a beauty all their own, and 
members of our Field Club will recall with pleasure the many charms of that 
most unartificial of artificial pieces of water, the Basingstoke Canal, of which, by 
the kindness of the Homeland Association, we are able to reproduce an illustra- 
tion from this Handbook. With special chapters on the bird and plant life of the 
district by competent local workers, this is an exceptionally good example of the 
Association’s guide-books. 
The Waveney Valley in the Stone Age. By William A. Dutt, 438, London 
Road, Kirkley, Lowestoft. Price is. id. post free. 
This interesting paper on a portion of the Broads of Norfolk and Suffolk, 
re-tells the story of the palaeolithic implements of Iloxne, and supplements it 
with the writer’s own study of neolithic remains from the same neighbourhood. 
Mr. Dutt gives a useful sketch-map and three plates of implements, and his 
essay will prove of more than merely local interest to antiquarians. 
Nature Calendar , 1906. Messrs. George Philip and Son. Piice 6d. net. 
This wall-calendar in twelve monthly sheets, tastefully printed on stout paper, 
will appeal to Selbornians, for it is almost entirely the “Naturalists’ Calendar” 
as kept by White at Selborne, and by Markwick at Catsfield, from 1768 to 1 793 - 
We think that, for use to-day, some annotation is a desideratum, many of the 
names, such as “ Serapias longifol, Wall Pepper and Hooded Willow-herb,” 
being no longer familiar to ordinary students. 
One and All Gardening , 1906. Edited by E. O. Greening. Agricultural and 
Horticultural Association. Price 2d. 
The eleventh issue of this hardy perennial is, like its predecessors, full of 
interesting text and illustrations from cover to cover. It is, however, a pity that 
excellent and deservedly popular work such as this should be marred by the 
common inaccuracy of describing dry fruits as “seeds.” 
The Naturalists' Directory , 1906-7. L. Upcott Gill. Price is. 6d. net. 
We are glad to learn that this useful book ot reference, now in its tenth year, 
is meeting with increased appreciation. We hope all working naturalists will 
keep the editor well informed as to their addresses. 
The Writers' and Artists' Year Book , 1906 Adam and Charles. Black. 
Price is. net. 
There are at the present day so many who desire to tempt fate with pen or 
pencil that a list such as this, of publishers and periodicals, literary agents, &c., 
with their special lines of business, must prove of wide utility. 
The Horniman Museum : Handbook to the Library. London County Council. 
Price id. 
As this is, in the main, a subject-index to the best modern English works on 
Natural History in the widest sense, including ethnology, sociology, and pre- 
history, it will be worth far more than its price to many besides those who can 
constantly visit the Museum at Forest Hill. It is the work of Mr. A. W. Pepper, 
the Librarian, as we learn from a prefatory note by Mr. Gomme, Clerk of the 
Council, in which we are glad to see an acknowledgment, such as we have on 
former occasions suggested, of Mr. F. Slade’s authorship of the excellent hand- 
books previously issued. 
Received — Bird-Lore for November and December ; Our Animal Friends 
and The Victorian Naturalist for December ; and The Naturalist, The Irish 
Naturalist, The Animals' Friend, The Animal World, The Humanitarian, The 
Parents' Review, The Agricultilral Economist and The Estate Magazine for 
January.
