Excerpt from Short Stalks Second Series: Comprising Trips in Somaliland, Sinai, the Eastern Desert of Egypt, Crete, the Carpathian Mountains, and Daghestan

I have illustrated this volume from my own photo graphs, which, though the mere casual snap-shots of an amateur, perhaps give 'more reality to the text than the engraver's art, however beautiful. They have been excellently reproduced by the Swan Electric Engraving Company, to Whom my thanks are due. Some of the blocks have been borrowed from my daughter's book, On Either Side of the Red Sea. Mr. J. G. Millais' work is always welcome to sportsmen. He has kindly furnished me with the vigorous design for the cover of the volume.
