_SATURDAY REVIEW._—“It is one of the most delightful books about birds ever written. All the stories are good.... He knows all about their social habits and their solitary phases of life from close and constant observation, and makes the most profitable use of his study as ornithologist by the prettiest alliance of his science with the fancy and humour of an excellent story teller.... The book finds sympathetic illustration in Mr. Bryan Hook’s clever drawings.” _GLOBE._—“Mr Fowler’s book will be especially appreciated by young readers. He displays both a knowledge and love of nature and of the animal creation, and his tales have the merit moreover of conveying in an unostentatious way the best of morals. The illustrations by Mr. Bryan Hook are admirably drawn and engraved.” _GUARDIAN._—“Mr. Fowler has produced a charming book, which none are too old and few too young to appreciate. He possesses the rare art of telling a story simply and unaffectedly; he is pathetic without laborious effort; he excels in suggesting the effect which he desires to produce. A quiet vein of humour runs through many of the stories, and many shrewd strokes of kindly satire are given under the guise of his pleasant fables.... Apart from the interest of the stories themselves, the pages are brimful of minute observation of the ways and habits of bird life. The _Tales of the Birds_ would be an admirable present to any child, and if the grown-up donor read it first, the present would, in a peculiar degree, confer the double blessing which proverbially belongs to a gift.” _ST. JAMES’S GAZETTE._—“We scarcely know which we like best of these charming stories ... Every piece gives as some further glimpse into the ways of birds and makes us feel fonder of them.” _Crown 8vo. 3s. 6d._ MORE TALES OF THE BIRDS.

[_Handbooks of Archæology and Antiquities_ _SPECTATOR._—“This work is intended as an introduction to the study of the religion of the Romans, and a very faithful and accurate piece of work it is, as indeed might be expected by those who know Mr. Fowler’s previous studies of ancient life.” _LITERATURE._—“Mr. Fowler has admirably summed up the results of the folklore school as far as Rome is concerned; and it is much to have a scholar’s unprejudiced opinion on them. The book marks a distinct step in advance.” _GUARDIAN._—“A delightful volume which will attract and interest any educated and thoughtful reader.”
