YEOMAN SERVICE:
Being the Diary of the Wife of an Imperial Yeomanry Officer during the
Boer War.
By the Lady MAUD ROLLESTON. Large crown 8vo. _7s._ _6d._
_Spectator._--'A very fascinating book.... We say to our readers without
the slightest fear of misleading them--"get the book and read it."'
_World._--'None of the multitudinous war books surpass this one in
attraction--few approach it. The services rendered by the writer are
well known; her experiences, recorded here in a simple and lucid form,
are full of human interest, general and particular.'
_Athenaeum._--'Lady Maud Rolleston has written the best woman's book
about the war. She does not show partiality ... indeed, appears to be
gifted with unusual fairness.... On the whole we have nothing but praise
for the book.'
