_SATURDAY REVIEW._--"Is exactly what one of a series of short biographies of English Statesmen ought to be." ELIZABETH. By E. S. BEESLY, M.A. _MANCHESTER GUARDIAN._--"It may be recommended as the best and briefest and most trustworthy of the many books that in this generation have dealt with the life and deeds of that 'bright Occidental Star, Queen Elizabeth of happy memory.'" OLIVER CROMWELL. By FREDERIC HARRISON. _TIMES._--"Gives a wonderfully vivid picture of events." WILLIAM III. By H. D. TRAILL. _SPECTATOR._--"Mr. Traill has done his work well in the limited space at his command. The narrative portion is clear and vivacious, and his criticisms, although sometimes trenchant, are substantially just." WALPOLE. By JOHN MORLEY. _ST. JAMES'S GAZETTE._--"It deserves to be read, not only as the work of one of the most prominent politicians of the day, but for its intrinsic merits. It is a clever, thoughtful, and interesting biography." PITT. By Lord ROSEBERY. _TIMES._--"Brilliant and fascinating.... The style is terse, masculine, nervous, articulate, and clear; the grasp of circumstance and character is firm, penetrating, luminous, and unprejudiced; the judgment is broad, generous, humane, and scrupulously candid.... It is not only a luminous estimate of Pitt's character and policy, it is also a brilliant gallery of portraits. The portrait of Fox, for example, is a masterpiece." PEEL. By J. R. THURSFIELD, M.A. _DAILY NEWS._--"A model of what such a book should be. We can give it no higher praise than to say that it is worthy to rank with Mr. John Morley's _Walpole_ in the same series." CHATHAM. By JOHN MORLEY. [_In Preparation._ MACMILLAN AND CO., LONDON. TRANSCRIBER'S NOTE Italic text is denoted by _underscores_.
