"We conclude our too brief notice of the volume by saying that the
child-lover will revel in it, whilst it may well turn the child-hater
from the error of his ways. As we read, we were startled by coming

seems to us, has fallen, in no slight degree, upon Mr. Maynard Smith;
nor can we repress the thought that if the great essayist had had the
privilege of reading these pages, he would never have perpetrated the
atrocity, with which tradition charges him, of toasting the memory of
Herod the Great."--_Church Family Newspaper._
