A Month on the Norfolk Broads. By Walter Rye. (Simpkin

and Marshall.)—This is a pleasant little book, illustrated ornamentally with drawings by Mr. Wilfrid Ball, and practically with maps of the rivers and broads. The crew of the wherry 'Ze' seem to have enjoyed themselves very much, but to have done very little in the fishing line. But this to the trite angler matters little. Not many more pleasant ways of spending a holiday of the unexciting sort could be, than with three friends who would not disdain the humble bottom-rod by day and a rubber of whist at night.
