Abstract
THIS is the sequel to Mr. Brian Waters's excellent and highly sueeessful “Severn Tide". It deals with the upper waters of the longest river in Great Britain, from tne source on Plynlimmon to Tewkesbtury. This is magnificent country for the author, who is a true countryman with wide interests in topography and natural history ; a man, moreover, with an inquiring mind and a great interest in his fellow men, their works and ways. Mr. Waters has made the most of his opportunity, and has written another volume of topographical writing at its best—accurate, urbane, artistic, earthy.
