OBSERVER.--"Full of pleasant memoirs and piquant reading."
DAILY TELEGRAPH.--"The book that tells the story of Lady Morgan's life
will always be of value for its pictures of a state of society which,
with much of its good, and more of its evil, has passed away for ever."
DAILY NEWS.--"Surveying, as they do, considerably more than half the last
hundred years, and touching upon some of the most instructive events of
that period, these volumes, it need hardly be said, are most interesting.
Princes, dukes, and nobles, authors, artists, and _literati_ of every
profession, crowd the pages of the work."
MANCHESTER EXAMINER.--"One of the most pleasant books of its class with
which we are acquainted."
In Two Volumes, 8vo, price 26s.
With a Portrait of LADY MORGAN, by Sir Thomas Lawrence, and a Portrait of
SIR CHARLES MORGAN.
THE NATIONALITIES OF EUROPE.
BY DR. R. G. LATHAM.
Two Vols. 8vo, 32s.
OBSERVER.--"The mass of facts gathered from all quarters and crowded
together in the pages of these volumes is something wonderful."
13 Waterloo Place, S. W.
THIRD EDITION.
HISTORY OF THE BRITISH EMPIRE
IN INDIA.
BY EDWARD THORNTON, ESQ.
Containing a copious Glossary of Indian Terms, and a complete
Chronological Index of Events, to aid the aspirant for Public
Examinations.
One Vol. 8vo, with Map, price 16s.
THE TIMES.--"Mr. Thornton is master of a style of great perspicuity and
vigour, always interesting, and frequently rising into eloquence. His
power of painting character and of bringing before the eye of the reader
the events which he relates, is remarkable; and if the knowledge of India
can be made popular, we should say his is the pen to effect it."
GLOBE.--"Mr. Thornton's history is comprehensive in its plan, clear and
forcible in its style, and impartial in its tone."
EDINBURGH EVENING COURANT.--"The writer evinces diligence and research
into original authorities; his style is easy, and the intrinsic interest
of the important events of Indian history is thus increased by a popular
and amusing narrative."
