It is to be regretted that this useful little book was not published during the existence of the Colonial and Indian Exhibition, as it would then probably have been read to advantage by many of our official and unofficial visitors from abroad. Presenting the views of a foreigner, it would have been a useful supplement to the Handbook of H. M.'s Colonies, published by the Commissioners. But now even we do not hesitate to recommend it to everybody desirous of forming a clear and unbiassed opinion of the relative importance of our different possessions. Prominence is given to the industrial and commercial features of the Colonies, and exports and imports cleverly compared and contrasted.
