“It is something more than a drawing-room ornament. It is an elaborate
and careful summary of all that one of our most learned antiquaries,
after years of pleasant labour, on a very pleasant subject, has been
able to learn as to the condition of women from the earliest times.
It is beautifully illustrated, both in colours--mainly from ancient
illuminations--and also by a profusion of woodcuts, portraying the
various fashions by which successive ages of our history have been
marked.”--_The Times_.
“We should be at a loss to find words of excessive praise for the
learning, judgment, and delicate art with which the author has
gathered, arranged, and presented the multifarious materials of
a fascinating narrative, that would be told effectively by the
embellishments of the book, even if the illustrations were not
accompanied with words of explanatory text.”--_Athenæum_.
