THACKER, SPINK 6- CO., CALCUTTA. THE TRIBES ON MY FRONTIER. Fifth Edition. 8s. 6d. " It is a very clever record of a year's observations round the bungalow in ' Dustypore.' . . . . It is by no means a mere travesty.....The writer is always amusing, and never dull."aField. " The book is cleverly illustrated by Mr. F. C. Macrae. We have only to thank our Anglo-Indian naturalist for the delightful book which he has sent home to his countrymen in Britain. May he live to give us another such."a Chambers's Journal. 44 A most charming series of sprightly and entertaining essays on what may be termed the fauna of the Indian bungalow. .... We have no doubt that this amusing book will find its way into every Anglo-Indian's library."a Aliens Indian Mail. " This is a delightful book, irresistibly funny in description and illustration, but full of genuine science too......There is not a dull or unin- structive page in the whole book."aKnowledge. " It is a pleasantly-written book about the insects and other torments of India which make Anglo-Indian life unpleasant, and which can be read with pleasure even by those beyond the reach of the tormenting things Eha describes." a Graphic. "The volume is full of accurate and unfamiliar observation." aSaturday Revieiv. W. THACKER e CO., 87 NEWGATE STREET, LONDON.W. THACKER e CO., 87 NEWGATE STREET, LONDON.
