The Illustrations drawn on Wood expressly for this Work, by PAUL J. NAFTEL, Member of the London Society of Painters in Water Colours.
SATURDAY REVIEW, April 4, 1863.—"This is a really valuable work. A book which will long remain the standard authority on its subject. No one who has been to the Channel Islands, or who purposes going there, will be insensible of its value."
ATHENÆUM, Nov. 16, 1862.—"It is the produce of many hands, and every hand a good one. Nearly everything which a man can desire to know about Jersey, Guernsey, Alderney, and Sark, about their history, geography, and natural history, Professor Ansted and Dr. Latham have contrived to tell."
SPECTATOR, Jan. 24, 1863.—"We are quite sure that to all classes of readers this work will prove exceedingly interesting, while scientific men will acknowledge that it leaves no room for any future history of the Islands."
LONDON REVIEW, Jan. 17, 1863.—"We can safely say that no one can visit the Channel Islands without finding much to interest and inform in the work before us."
OBSERVER, Nov. 30, 1862.—"As gems of art, these illustrations have rarely been equalled, and certainly have never been surpassed. They are alone sufficient to confer a lasting popularity and permanent value. The volume however, possesses an intrinsic worth irrespective of all its graces of adornment, which will not fail to command it the hearty approbation of every reader."
