Abstract
THESE notes reveal some of the humour and pathos of rural life in South Wilts, and here and there they lightly touch natural scenes and objects other than human. The plates, which are reproductions from original photographs of Wiltshire views, are excellent, and the book itself is a dainty volume suitable for a drawing room table. Reference is made to the “pernicious habit of ‘underlining’ in their letters” which some people adopt, yet we notice an abundance of italicised words in the book, and they are equivalent to the underlined words so severely condemned
