“Mr. Maxwell is a most original traveller....  We have said so much of Mr. Maxwell the writer and traveller, that there is a danger of forgetting Mr. Maxwell the artist.  All the work has character; most of it has that delicacy of colour and outline which we have learned to associate with the author.”—­Athenaeum.

“On page after page Mr. Maxwell delights the eye with views and ‘bits’ picturesque, quaint or amusing, while his anecdotes and adventures make us laugh and long to follow in his footsteps, for he has the gift of description in words as well as in pictures.  This is one of the most thoroughly satisfactory artist-tourist books we have seen, and its publisher has done justice to the good material at his disposal.”—­Morning Post.

“A delightful survey of scenes.  Mr. Maxwell’s drawings are full of the right touch and insight, all faithfully conveyed and put into a sumptuous book.”—­Pall Mall Gazette.

“This is an exceedingly charming book.  Mr. Maxwell’s book is a genuine sketch book.”—­Daily News.

“Contains many clever drawings....  Charmingly sketched.”—­Evening Standard.
