The Sportsman's Year - Book. Edited by C. S, Colman and A,

H. Windsor. (Lawrence and Ballen. 2s. 6d.)—This volume is a new venture; it is to be "a Sportsman's Whitaker, in the shape of a collection of the rules of the chief English games and sports, with some account of the year's events in each subject." A goodly list there is of these same sports. They number more than forty. There is also a brief summary of the "Books of the Year."
