_Demy 8vo. 12s. 6d. net. Fully Ill.u.s.trated_

 

_The Nation_, _17th August 1912_.--"The book is full of adventure and anecdote, and Colonel Brown's simple unaffected style is well suited to the story he tells."

_Ill.u.s.trated London News_, _31st August 1912_.--"From cover to cover the book is packed full of lively incidents, told in a quick, easy and vivid style, which holds the reader from the first page to the last.... It should find many readers all the Empire over."

_Evening Standard_, _12th July 1912_.--"A more natural writer never published a book. For strong epithet allied to pungent diction he has not his superior outside Rabelais."

_Yorks.h.i.+re Weekly Post_, _17th August_ (or _10th August_) _1912_.--"The new book is as good reading as the one before, which is saying a great deal for it."

_Glasgow Herald_, _11th July 1912_.--"The book is to be commended for its real interest and exciting narrative, combined with humour and plain-speaking."

_Dublin Times_, _9th August 1912_.--"To those who wish to know something of the life of a soldier and the kind of fighting that was done in those early days for the aggrandis.e.m.e.nt of the Empire, we can give no better advice than to procure this book. It is full of candid criticism and genuine information."

_The Graphic_, _27th July 1912_.--"'A Lost Legionary in South Africa,'

by Colonel G. Hamilton-Browne, known as Maori Browne, contains some excellent stories."

_Belfast News Letter_, _29th August 1912_.--"The book is written in the same attractive style as its predecessor, and there are many striking pa.s.sages in it."
