This Part of this magnificent work follows up and completes the practical treatise on the Orchard and its Produce; the Management of the Fruit and Cider-house; the Process of Fermentation, its Theory, Varieties, Practice, and Difficulties; the Manufacture of Cider and Perry; the Orchard in its Financial Aspect and its Prospect, by C. H. Bulwer, M.A. These matters are treated of in a thoroughly practical manner. The Part contains, besides, accurate descriptions with beautifully coloured portraits of 29 varieties of Apples and 35 varieties of Pears. These portraits are even more beautifully executed, if that be possible, than those of the three former Parts. It is scarcely possible that any one who purchases this splendid work can be disappointed with it.
