Mr. Wallace has not attempted to add to its interest by any adornments of style; he has given a simple and clear statement of intrinsically interesting facts, and what he considers to be legitim.ate deductions from them. Naturahsts ought to be grateful to him for having undertaken so toilsome a task. The work, indeed, is a credit to all concerned—the author, the publishers, the artist, unfortunately now no more, of the attractive illustrations—last, but by no means least, Mr. Stanford's map-designer. TROPICAL NATURE : With other Essays. 8vo. 12s.
