“This is one of those rare and delightful books, in which the reader is invited to smile rather than to laugh, and to think even when he is most amused.”—The Globe.

“Many a tired mind will find in this volume refreshing stimulus.”—The Observer.

“Surely the ease, the irony, and the mere humour of this will be very grateful to any mind that values those gifts.”—The Outlook.
