*"This book ought to be largely circulated, not only on account of its scientific merits-though these, as we have in part shewn, are great and signal-but because it is popularly written throughout, and therefore likely to excite general attention to a subject which ought to be held as one of primary importance. Every one is interested about fishes the political economist, the epicure, the merchant, the man of science, the angler, the poor, the rich. We hail the appearance of this book as the dawn of a new era in the natural history of England."-Quarterly Review, No 116.
