Dean HOLE, in an article upon the work in the _Nineteenth Century_,
says:--'There is not time for further enjoyment of this sweet, spicy
"Pot-Pourri"; no space for further extracts from this clever and
comprehensive book; only for two more earnest words to the
reader--_Buy it_.'
_By the same Author._
MORE POT-POURRI FROM A SURREY GARDEN. SIXTH IMPRESSION. Large crown
8vo. 7_s._ 6_d._
'This second volume has all the charm of the first. It is just the
friendly chat of a lady who has not only read books, but knows all
about her kitchen, and, if possible, more about the garden she loves.
On each, sound, useful information is pleasantly conveyed'--PUNCH.
A THIRD POT-POURRI. SECOND EDITION. Large cr. 8vo. 7_s._ 6_d._
'Rarely are two successes followed in due course by a third success,
but all those who delighted in Mrs. Earle's two first books will
eagerly welcome "A Third Pot-Pourri."'
