ON DOING WHAT ONE LIKES. By Alec Waugh. (Cayme Press.

7s. 6d. net.) MR. WAyon's essays are graceful and pleasant. He talks of nothing in particular in a most casual way, and it is hard to stop reading. He is perhaps most attractive when he tells his reminiscences of football and cricket matches ; for then he has most to say and his style is most vivid. But we are almost inclined to believe that these essays have been printed merely in order that the Cayme Press might be able to show how beautifully they can produce their books.
