REV. RICHARD LUBBOCK, M.A.

WITH ADDITIONS FROM UNPUBLISHED MANUSCRIPTS OF THE AUTHOR, AND NOTES BY
THOMAS SOUTHWELL, F.Z.S.,

AN APPENDIX CONTAINING NOTES ON HAWKING IN NORFOLK, BY

"In addition to the intrinsic merits of the book, of which we can
personally speak in the superlative degree as one of the most
pleasantly-written of the many pleasant natural history books our
language is so rich in--describing, as it does, the 'Broad
District'--a country unlike any other part of England, and a very
paradise to the Botanist, Entomologist, and Ornithologist. This
new edition is edited by Mr. Thomas Southwell, the active
Secretary of the Norfolk and Norwich Naturalists' Society, whose
full and accurate knowledge of the natural history of Norfolk
better fits him for the task than any other man we know
of."--_Science Gossip._
