houses and quaint villages, the parks, rivers, and coasts of the Garden

high; he has chosen his views so admirably and rendered them so
beautifully that we find ourselves wishing there were even more of

so well that we cannot recall a ‘colour-book’ which has given us greater
satisfaction.”--_Daily Telegraph._
