Roberts, Charles George Douglas. [Haunters of the silences.] $2. Page.
7–18302.
In the course of these eighteen short stories of the wild, Mr. Roberts not only introduces us to types of animal life in the earth’s silent places but takes us down into the depths of the sea to meet the orca, the shark, the narwhal, and the ocean cuttlefish.
“The book is very well worth buying and keeping for the illustrations alone, and again it is well worth buying and keeping even had it no illustrations. It will be a world dull of appreciation which does not recognize great qualities in this volume.”
