In “Life and Sport on the North Shore of the Lower 
St. Lawrence and Gulf,” Mr. Comeau has made a valu¬

of wild life.

fifty years, spent in the cause of humanity and science

of Canada. He writes as one sportsman to his fellows, 
detailing his experiences with the wild things of wood, 
shore and sea, with plenty of stirring experiences with 
big game and gamy fish.
