Sporting literature receives a valuable addition in the 
publication of Roosevelt’s “ Florida and the Game 
Water Birds of the Atlantic Coast and the Lakes of the 
United States." The author is an euthusiastic sports¬ 
man, and his experience has been a wide one .—Evening 
Transcript, Boston. 
Characteristics and habits of game water-birds are 
given in detail. Game protection is discussed. Guns 
and rods are treated of at iength, and the handling of 
these is described as carefully as tlie art critic would 
exhibit the technique of a work of difiicnlt execution.— 
Boston Daily Advertiser. 
The Florida excursion, of which Mr. Roosevelt gives 
a lively and interesting history, was undertaken with 
an eye to sport, and exhibits the practical application of 
a great deal of the technical knowledge set forth in 
part second. Mr. Roosevelt and a congenial party, in¬ 
cluding ladies, made a winter trip to Florida in a small 
yacht, or sharpie, drawing one or two feet of water, and 
spent a delightful season, hunting, fishing, and explor¬ 
ing in waters, of which the ordinary tourist knows 
nothing whatever. The descriptions are clear without 
prolixity, the sporting episodes show the same touch of 
an expert, the narrative is easy and vivacious, and the 
whole record is permeated which good liumor.—
