OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. =The Athenæum= says:—"This is an amusing little book, written with much brightness and considerable literary skill." =The Standard=, _Dec. 24, 1884_:—"It is written in an exceptionally bright and genial style ... his writings bespeak an intense love of Nature and a keen power of observation. A strong vein of quiet humour runs through the volume, mingled with thoughts sometimes serious, sometimes playful. Altogether it is one of the most pleasantly written little books which we have read for a long time." =The Daily News= says:—"Herein is the charm of the book.... For an amateur, he certainly saturates you thoroughly with true Dove Dale flavour." =The Pall Mall Gazette=:—"This is a pleasant book to read 'now that the fields are dank and ways are mire.'" =The World= says:—"Not merely by brethren of the rod, but by all who appreciate Nature in her prettiest haunts it will be found pleasant reading." =The Illustrated News= says:—"This charming bit of personal narrative ... will certainly be preserved on many a shelf where Izaak Walton and Charles Cotton hold the most honoured place." =The Graphic= says:—"Written in a charming spirit, with plenty of quiet humour in it." =Harper's Magazine=, _Jan. 1885_:—"He is _serus stud orum_, he is only learning to fish, but he can write, and has made a very charming though brief addition to angling literature." =The Field= says:—"Anyhow, the result of 'The Dove Dale Holidays' is a delightful pocket companion.... The principal charm of the little work is that it will be equally interesting to anglers and non-anglers." =The St. James's Gazette=:—"Every page of it is good—a bright little volume. Worthy of gracious acceptance from all sorts and conditions of readers." =The Daily Telegraph=:—"The fisherman, who must be as pleasant a companion by the waterside, as he is genial as an author, tells us how he spent three weeks' holidays, &c.... may employ very pleasantly half-an-hour of any angler's time." =The Guardian=, _Nov. 19_, says:—"Tells in a very pleasant fashion how a delightful three weeks' holiday may be spent in beautiful Dove Dale."
