A NEW HISTORY OF THE ANGLO-SAXONS. _By_ SIR FRANCIS PALGRAVE. _With Illustrative Woodcuts._ This work (as the preface mentions) was intended in imitation of the _Tales of my Grandfather_. “Let me hope,” the author says, “that occasionally, whilst the younger branches find amusement in the tales and adventures here brought together, some of the older folks may not be unwilling to take this little summary in hand, as a temporary substitute for the unmanageable folios produced by the unwearied industry of Saville, Twysden, and Warton, and Wilkins.” THE REFORMATION IN ENGLAND. By the REV. J. J. BLUNT. This is a compact but lively and entertaining sketch of the Reformation, and the personal history of the founders of our National Church. The Reformation is one of the most remarkable events in our history, whether in relation to politics or religion; for its influence was most powerful upon both. The reading, profession, and taste of the author have led him to regard it chiefly in the latter light; and, therefore, brief as the sketch is, it will not be found of the nature of an abridgment, but a continuous though succinct account of the rise, progress, and consummation of that great revolution of the _Church of England_. ⁂ This book is included in the list of works of the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge.
