THE FOLLOWING ARB A PEW OP THE PRESS NOTICES OP THE EARLIER EDITIONS: — "The historical part of the work is most inter, esting, tha anecdotal part most amusing, tho advising part moat instructive, and, in short, from start to finish tho book is ‘good.’ * » • Tha beautiful little vignettes are a study, and high examples of the painter’s and engraver’s art.”—“ For Terrier Chronicle.” “ Brooders and exhibitors will find it very useful, and it is not without interest to all who agree with King Solomon, that * a living dog is better than a dead lion.* " Morning Post,” *‘A bright, pleasant and sufficiently long history of the breed from, earliest times leads the reader step hy stop until the author has shown the youngest fancier clearly how his dogs were produoed. *• * * Replete with racy stories of doughty deeds dona by dogs belonging to several well-known breeders.’’—"The Stock-Keeper.” " To those who admire tho fox terrier the work ia invaluable; to those who admire dogs it is pleasing and instructive literature.” "The American Fie?d,“ “ Eating been interested in fox terriers from tho time that they first ca.mo prominently into notice, there is no one more capable of giving a true hietory of tho fox terrier, sorts there any person whose opinion ts more valued than that of the Kennel Editor of the • Field,’ when tho smart little tyke is Wider consideration.—" Fanciers’ Gazette.” “ The author hao by no means lost sight of tho purpose for which these terriers ware and should be bred in the present day, and has duly endeavoured to maintain their character as a true sport, ing dog. The chapters on working qualities are excellent. » • * The illustrations are ua* equalled.”—" Kennel Gazette.” “ A volume all about fox terriers can scarcely fall to be well received by the public, and from the pen of such a well-known Writer, the contents, one may well be assured, are valuable, * * * Every fox terrier fancier should have this hook on his shelf.”—“ Sporting Life.” “The whole subject is treated in an exhaustive style which seems to leave nothing else to he said on tho subject, and which only the experience of such writers as Mr Lee could lead ns to look for. * * * Apart from owners of dogs even, there are few who will not find much readable and pleasant matter in its pages.”—" Kendal Mercury and Times." “The vignettes are beautiful. Altogether wa pave not read a more wholesome book oh any branch of the fancy.’*—" Scottish Fancier." “Mr Bawdon Lee, the Kennel Editor of the ■Field,’ has produced one of the, and probably the best and most complete works on those charm. Ing little dogs that has ever been written. Tho unarming illustrations, tho portraits of celebrated flogs, and the vignettes at the ends of chapters W Mr Arthur Wardle are well executed, and add tnnoh to the beauty of one of tho best hooks of tha kind we have come across."—“ Poultry.” “ We have already referred to the new edition of Mr Eawdon Lee a important wort on ‘The Fox Terrier.* This must be regarded as the standard work on the history, tho points, and the pedigrees of the popular little dog which ’ plebeian sports, men ’ who indulge in rabbit coursing, and a certain slass of ‘fancy’ are doing their level host to isstroy. Apart from its groat value as a record sf all that is worth knowing about fox terriers, Mr Lee’s book in its present cheap and elegant form is a delightful historical, typographical and urtisao addition to the literature of dogoloav ■* W estmorelnnd Qazotte." “ 1 ' A limited number of Large Paper Copies, with the pag- engravings -on India, paper, ah edition da luxe, wiU be ready in a fortnight.
