More particularly calculated for the sport of Angling, with directions for preparing Angle Rods, Hooks, &c., &c. Collected from the best Authors, and from the long experience of James Saunders, Esq. London, 1724. 12mo. Saunders's "Compleat Fisherman" has the merit of being a genuine and sterling treatise on the sport. Saunders is generally considered the first angling author who treats of the silk-worm gut: but Pepys, as far back as 1667, seems to have made acquaintance with silk-worm gut in England, for in his Diary he states: "This day Mr. Cæsar told me a pretty experiment of his, angling a minikin, a gutt-string varnished over which keeps it from swelling, and is beyond any hair for strength and smallness. The secret I like mightily."-T. Westwood. SCHOMBURGH, R. H. Fishes of British Guiana. Library, Vols. XXXIX., XL.) London (no date). (The Naturalist's 2 vols. 12mo. SCHULTZ, ALEXANDER.
