"Mr. Leslie has a keen sense of the picturesque, while a genuine
enthusiasm for the beauties of scenery to be found in the course of a
leisurely boat-trip from Putney to Oxford, gives life and even force
to what he says.... 'Our River' is not an exhaustive work, but it
should be read by all persons who are in any way interested in the
subject."--_Times._
"The diction moves in a sort of endless ripple, now telling of
water-weeds and bank-flowers and birds, now lingering pleasantly
over some of the traditions and old-world lore of which the Thames
furnishes such a goodly quantity."--_Graphic._
