"We are glad to see that the demand for Dr. Lingard's _England_ still continues. Few histories give the reader the same impression of exhaustive study. This new edition is excellently printed, and illustrated with ten portraits of the greatest personages in our history." Dublin Review. "It is pleasant to notice that the demand for Lingard continues to be such that publishers venture on a well got-up library edition like the one before us. More than sixty years have gone since the first volume of the first edition was published; many equally pretentious histories have appeared during that space, and have more or less disappeared since, yet Lingard lives--is still a recognised and respected authority." The Scotsman. "There is no need, at this time of day, to say anything in vindication of the importance, as a standard work, of Dr. Lingard's 'History of England.' For half a century it has been recognised as a literary achievement of the highest merit, and a monument of the erudition and research of the author.... His book is of the highest value, and should find a place on the shelves of every library. Its intrinsic merits are very great. The style is lucid, pointed, and puts no strain upon the reader; and the printer and publisher have neglected nothing that could make this--what it is likely long to remain--the standard edition of a work of great historical and literary value." Imaginary Conversations. By WALTER SAVAGE LANDOR. In Five Vols. crown 8vo, cloth, 30s. FIRST SERIES--CLASSICAL DIALOGUES, GREEK AND ROMAN. SECOND SERIES--DIALOGUES OF SOVEREIGNS AND STATESMEN. THIRD SERIES--DIALOGUES OF LITERARY MEN. FOURTH SERIES--DIALOGUES OF FAMOUS WOMEN. FIFTH SERIES--MISCELLANEOUS DIALOGUES. NOTE.--_This New Edition is printed from the last Edition of his Works, revised and edited by John Forster, and is published by arrangement with the Proprietors of the Copyright of Walter Savage Landor's Works._ The Athenaeum. "The appearance of this tasteful reprint would seem to indicate that the present generation is at last waking up to the fact that it has neglected a great writer, and if so it is well to begin with Landor's most adequate work. It is difficult to overpraise the 'Imaginary Conversations.' The eulogiums bestowed on the 'Conversations' by Emerson will, it is to be hoped, lead many to buy this book." Scotsman. "An excellent service has been done to the reading public by presenting to it, in five compact volumes, these 'Conversations.' Admirably printed on good paper, the volumes are handy in shape, and indeed the edition is all that could be desired. When this has been said, it will be understood what a boon has been conferred on the reading public; and it should enable many comparatively poor men to enrich their libraries with a work that will have an enduring interest."
