The article critically apprises the book "Handbooks of Athletic Sports," vol. 2 and 3, edited by Earnest Bell. It is true that these volumes of the book are in every respect, less ambitious than their predecessors and are so much less costly as to be within the reach of a larger circle of readers, but only those who have noted the recent growth of athletics can realize how eager is the demand for such books. These two volumes contain treatises by different experts on cricket, lawn-tennis, tennis, racquets, golf, hockey, rowing, sailing and swimming.
