ROUGHING IT IN SOUTHERN INDIA. BY Mrs. M. A. Handley. Illustrated. 12s. 6d. net.
“The scope of Mrs. Handley’s book is quite inadequately indicated by the title; it really forms a welcome addition to our knowledge of the vast and complex subject of India in that it contains the impressions of a keen and shrewd observer on many Indian races, their manners, customs, religions, virtues, vices, and idiosyncrasies, as well as admirable descriptions of scenery, vivid accounts of hunting incidents and travel episodes, and instructive little asides on the political and economical, social and racial problems of the great peninsula. We recommend the book thoroughly; it is well written in a style that is as attractive as it is sound, and the matter is worthy of all consideration.”—Standard.
THE WILDS OF PATAGONIA. A Narrative of the Swedish Expedition to Patagonia, Tierra del Fuego, and the Falkland Islands in 1907-1909. By Carl Skottsberg, D.Sc., etc. With Illustrations and Maps. 15s. net.
“Few books of the kind that I have read in recent years are half as interesting. Instead of bloody records of the butchering of defenceless beasts (for it should never be forgotten that even tigers and rhinoceroses are practically without defence against quick-firing guns) we have an interesting account of plants, stones, natural history, and scientific problems, all set down by a young, well-educated and adventurous man. The book reads like what Captain Cook’s adventures might have been had they been written by Sir Joseph Banks, and still preserved Cook’s charm.”—Mr. R. B. Cunninghame Graham in the Saturday Review.
