From the PALL MALL GAZETTE, June 17th, 1874.
"It is refreshing to meet with a book like Mr. Berkeley's,
written not only by a sportsman, but by a sportsman of the
old school.. Taking his volumes all in all, they are an agree-
able and useful contribution to a subject which he has studied
with all his heart and soul through a long and active lifetime.
...... But for more detailed information on that and many
other subjects, we must refer our readers to the volumes, in
which they will find very little system, but 'a great deal of fine
confused feeding,' as the Scotchman said of the sheep's head."

From the SATURDAY REVIEW, June 27th, 1874.
"Few people will read Mr. Berkeley's book for its politics;
and we may have done with fault-finding when we turn to
sporting subjects. In these Mr. Berkeley is so much at home
as to give him excuse for speaking somewhat dogmatically.
He has lived with animals all his life, and has a happy knack
of making friends with them. Nor can we wonder at it when
we see how keenly he loves them, how thoroughly he has come
to understand their natures, and how closely he studies their

"A readable story, fresh and bright."-Public Opinion.

By Mrs. B. R.

Mr. Berkeley's hints on breeding and hunting hounds, on rear-
ing and preserving game, are well worth reading; but naturally
it is not easy to do them justice in a brief notice. In his talk
about hounds, what strikes us is the close attention he has
evidently paid to their habits, which makes his advice the
more valuable...... But we may have said enough to show that
the book is profitable as well as amusing."

ness, all to be forgiven, perhaps, because their author is a
veteran, possessing real mastership of his subject, and one who
writes from long and diversified experience. All relating to
hounds, foxes, horses, birds, wild fowl, fishes, game preserving,
and poaching, comes by turn under his hand, and he never
flinches from pronouncing an opinion..... After reading these

which they are liable, though all his theories with reference to
hydrophobia and rabies may not pass unchallenged. In dog-

great number of illustrations, and he even claims for the
animal a 'soul.'"

From the MORNING POST, June 22nd, 1874.

"A book on field sports and the best means of enjoying them is sometimes as repulsive and dry reading as a work on geometry. Mr. Berkeley here gives an autobiography as much as a hand-book of sports, and intersperses the details of hunting, riding to hounds, and other rural pastimes with so much light and interesting matter that he has provided a consolidated fund of enjoyment for all who take an interest in any branch of rural life. The precepts are thus inculcated in so pleasing a manner and with so many new anecdotes, that the reader unconsciously accepts the opinions thus gracefully insinuated, and rises from the perusal in doubt whether more to admire the sagacity of the veteran author, or the many amiable qualities of his heart, which beam forth ever and anon in this account of his dealings with the inferior animals. Like the

warmth light up each page and lend additional charm to each sportive scene.... Mr. Berkeley treats of all important sporting matters from a practical point of view, and in the way which a first-rate but untaught, or rather untechnical and unprejudiced, sportsman would consider them. A perusal of this work, therefore, will form a habit of mind such as the lover of field sports requires. It is like a hygienic or medical work
