"Although reviewers may play for safety when they are not sure of their subject as regards an indifferent book, they show a wonderfully quick appreciation for one that is thoroughly good. The present volume is a case in point, for the author is at once a true sportsman and a naturalist, as well as an artist of no mean ability, and from all sides comes the chorus of praise."—Annals and Magazine of Natural History.
