Abstract
THE Rev. Edward Conybeare has written a fascinating book about Cambridge and the Isle of Ely. He has taken as his theme a county a^.d an isle the natural features of which to many seem dull, flat and unprofitable. Yet all England is beautiful and all England is interesting, and owing to the skill of his pen and to his wide knowledge, Mr. Conybeare has succeeded in telling us something interesting even of the meanest of Cambridge country villages. The fascination of the fens to those who like far-off horizons and gorgeous sunsets does not escape him.
Highways and Byways in Cambridge and Ely.
