Captain Siltzer is a sportsman, and naturally his book wilt

make its first appeal to the lovers of horses and Newmarket- But not to them only. The historical chapters open intimate windows on the social life of the past, and the author's pleasant anecdotal style should give his book a wide public. Thi numerous illustrations are well chosen and well reproduced. An easy, talkative book.
