Media Reviews

Ross recreates a web of old-fashioned charm, mixing reminiscence, literary allusion, digression, straightforward travel diary and belle-lettrism . . . It all works with ease and elegance . . .an unusually enjoyable, learned and good-natured book
--Jan Dalley, Financial Times
A wonderfully civilised guide who bears his scholarship and his own memories lightly. . . reading Reflections on Blue Water is a winter holiday
--Patrick Skene Catling, Irish Times
