“He made the Sporting Novel something so entirely different to what it had been that he must be recognised as the originator of a new species more elevated, more refined, and more largely imbued with the spirit of modern society. No reader can take up any one of his best stories without feeling himself in a fresh atmosphere, and on a higher range of thought and feeling than he was conscious of in the sporting writers of the preceding generation.”—Standard.
“What is most rare in writers of this class Whyte-Melville possessed to a considerable degree, namely, the ability to hold the attention of readers, whether they were sportsmen or not.”—Saturday Review.
“An edition more worthy of the novelist has certainly not been issued before.”—World.
“Fulfils every requirement of the book-lover in paper, type, illustrations, and binding.”—Saturday Review.
