John Burroughs has made so deep and distinct an impression as a man of rare power and genius for observation and a writer of admirable literary talent, that a new book by him is sure of a wide and hearty welcome. He is recognized, in England as well as America, as a thoughtful and charming essayist on out-door topics; as one who has remarkable skill in reading some of the secrets of nature, of divining the significance of trees, flowers, and birds; and also a like skill in translating these into admirable form for all good readers. His new book has much variety and all the Burroughs charm.

"I was much pleased, as you know, with the work when I read it in manuscript, but
its worth has impressed me more in its present garb. To my mind, it is by far the most
accurate and complete of books on modern acoustics, and on the acoustic bases of har-
mony. I feel sure that a work so full of information, given in such pleasing style, must
have a success comporting with its merits and the conscientious work expended on it.'

The aim of the author, the Professor of Geology in University College, London, has been to render the geological history of the earth intelligible to non-scientific readers of ordinary education, technical terms being, if possible, avoided, and, if not, explained. Some theoretical questions, such as the age and duration of the globe, the permanence of oceans and continents, the cause of the glacial epoch, etc., are introduced and briefly discussed.
