'Map of Public Footpaths North and West of London. (G.
Philip and Son. 2s. net.)—This map has been prepared by the " Northern Heights Committee of the Middlesex, Herts, and Bucks Board of the Commons and Footpaths Preservation Society." Its extent is best indicated by giving the extrema points of its eastern and western boundaries. On the east, then, it takes in from Stoke .Newington to a point something less than three miles north of Enfield ; on the west from a point two miles south-west of Harrow to about the same distance north-north-west of Aldenham. The scale is two inches to the mile ; the whole space included amounts to nearly a hundred and twenty square miles. We gladly recognise the excellent service done to the public by those who have carried on this work. The Commons Preservation Society has established its claim to the gratitude of the nation, and of London especially. The subsidiary work also calls for recognition and support. "A subscription of any amount from a shilling upwards constitutes membership."
