Western waters; and, thanks to its modest proportions, there can be no objection to shipping it among the sea-stores of even such a vessel as the 'Ilma.'—Saturday Review.
"Anyone who intends cruising north during the coming summer would do well to obtain 'A Yachtsman's Holidays,' it contains so many valuable hints of the places most worth seeing, and many useful sailing directions obtained from personal experience. . . . . The volume is of a very handy size, and we think every yachtsman should find a place for it in his book locker."—Field.
"Four cruises are described, each in a separate craft. . . . Good seamanship was, of course, needed when cruising in such small boats among the northern lochs, but the 'Governor' evidently knows what he is about when the-tiller is in his hand as well as he does when he takes up the pen. The result of both gifts is, that he not only escaped 'the dangers of the deep,' but that the public are indebted to him for a book whose only fault is its brevity."—Globe.
"He interests his readers in his craft, and in the voyagings he made by their help, giving us a very lively and graphic picture of life on, or rather, we should say, off the West Coast."—Spectator.
"The 'Governor' is evidently one whose company is to be desired on a yachting cruise. He is a man of few dislikes and many sympathies. . . . . We are certain he will not want readers."—Glasgow Herald.
