The COUNTRY HOUSE. To be completed in 12 Parts, and to form Three Volumes.
"This (the Poultry-Yard) is one of a series of useful manuals written in a plain and popular style on the many adjuncts peculiar to a 'Country House.' It is perhaps one of the very best existing treatises on poultry, inasmuch as it discards all the superfluous matter generally introduced in books, and which puzzles, rather than assists, an inquiring reader. The writer evidently understands his subject, and this stamps his observations with a value which otherwise they would not possess."—Gardener's Chronicles, December 20.
