Containing articles on swimming, boating, cycling, hare and hounds, skating, lawn-tennis, foot-ball, etc. In short, an encyclopædia of just those things which boys want to know about.

“This is a capital book,” says the New York Independent. “The illustrations, diagrams, and drawings are very numerous and excellent; and the subject is treated in every aspect and variety by competent writers, who describe well and have the art of lending a charm to their dullest details.”
