SOME BOOKS OF THE WEEK.

[Tinder this heading we notice such Books of the week as have not been reserved for resists in other forms.] Through. South Westland. By A. Maud Moreland. (Witherby and Co. 'Dr. 6d. net.)—This is an account of a somewhat unevent- ful journey through the country that lies along the west coast of the south island of New Zealand. Mrs. Moreland tells her story simply and displays a genuine appreciation of the country through which she passed. Her especial interest was evidently that of the botanist. The book is illustrated by some excellent photographs, from which a good idea may be gained of the beauties of & New Zealand landscape.
