The process of zincography, by which nearly all the illustrations have been reproduced, has not in many cases realised my expectations, but it has been thought best to issue the book at once rather than wait until the illustrations could be rendered in a superior manner.
The profits, if any, from the sale of this book will be applied in aid of the Poolewe Public Hall.
