Vol. I.--"LIFE OF LONGFELLOW."
BY PROFESSOR ERIC S. ROBERTSON
"The object of 'GREAT WRITERS' is to 'furnish the public
with interesting and accurate accounts of the men and women
notable in modern literature.' The first volume, now before
us, is on Longfellow, by the Editor, and gives, in the space
of 180 pages, a detailed account of the poet's life, an
analysis of his work, and an essay on his place in
literature. It is as the household poet _par excellence_ that
Longfellow may reasonably take the first place in such a
series as that now to be issued, and, as an accompaniment to
the reading of the poems themselves, nothing more is wanted
than will be found in these pages. The type is clear, the
paper good, the binding stout, and the size handy. Altogether
a remarkable shillingsworth, even in this day of cheap books.
Other numbers promised are 'Coleridge,' by Hall Caine;
'Dickens,' by Frank Marzials; and 'Rossetti,' by Joseph
Knight. If the future numbers are as good as the first, a
great success may be anticipated."--_The Standard._
Vol. II. is "LIFE OF COLERIDGE."
