[*] Pottinger, Sir Henry. Flood, fell and forest; a book of sport in Norway. 2v. $8.40. Longmans.
“Sir Henry’s volumes deal with many phases of sport, from elk hunting, in which he is a veteran and an adept, to the successful pursuit of trout and salmon, from sport with Norwegian red deer to pleasant days with ryper and other game birds. The author was one of the earliest sportsmen to wet a line on the famous Tana river. This was nearly fifty years ago, but the narrative of the expedition and its results is so fresh and so vigorous that it is certain to capture the reader’s attention.” (Acad.) The volumes are illustrated.
[*] “To our thinking, although some of the matter is by no means entirely new, these are two of the pleasantest sporting volumes that we have encountered during the last three or four years.”

[*] “We like the temper of the book and a good part of its contents; but think it might, with distinct advantage from a literary point of view, have been compressed into one volume of moderate length.”
