Book Description
Excerpt from Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine, Vol. 162: July-December, 1897 Queen Victoria reigns over a people who find much of the plea sure of life in games either actively or passively. In review ing. A period with regard to its value in a nation's history, it is a great mistake to leave out of the reckoning the recreations and pleasures of the people, for these have a great in uence upon the national character. And the larger share such things have in daily life and interests, the more import ant is it to take them into con sideration. So in casting our eyes back upon Queen Victoria's reign we must not omit to notice the prevailing spirit of athleticism, which if it existed before has only of late years assumed a definite shape by crystallising, as it were, round the two great English games and round others in a less marked degree.

Book Description
Excerpt from Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine, Vol. 130: July December 1881 Here was what I had feared. I had still eighty miles before me, and the last telegram said that Standerton was expected hourly to be attacked. Let that once come off, and all hope of getting into the place was at an end. I could hardly ride it, even if I had horses fit for the journey and a soldier without his sword is half way towards a civilian, while to carry one full-speed for eighty miles on a horse, means to let it go. At last I found a man who had a spider, which he was will ing to let out for the trip; and as luck would have it - all through life I have always been a lucky fellow - the owner of the post-cart was in Newcastle, his horses still along the road, and he willing to run me through. In half an hour the spider was hired. Murray, the post-cart owner, had bought a new whip, and had gone out to drive in his first team; while I was hard at work putting down break fast, the last it might be for some time, and I consequently made a good one.

Still recent events are worthy of some men tion, if only to point out how grossly exaggerated have been the cries of Wolf!
