'The Marquis of Lorne's little book must be consulted by every student who wishes to get a thorough understanding of European history in the early part of the century. The documents to which the author has obtained access ... are both interesting and authoritative.'--STANDARD. THE EARL OF DERBY BY GEORGE SAINTSBURY. With Photogravure Portrait. Crown 8vo. 3_s._ 6_d._ 'A biography distinguished throughout by scrupulous fairness to its subject.... It is perhaps superfluous to add that the book is written with all Mr. Saintsbury's customary animation of style, and that it abounds in those shrewd and often humorous comments on men and affairs which enliven everything he writes.' SATURDAY REVIEW. THE EARL OF ABERDEEN BY SIR ARTHUR GORDON, G.C.M.G. &c. With Portrait. Crown 8vo. 3_s._ 6_d._ 'This little book, unlike its companion volumes, contains original documents of solid historical importance, and hitherto no authentic biography of Lord Aberdeen has existed, and the editor of the series certainly made a large demand upon Sir Arthur Gordon's good nature when he requested a biography compressed within the limits prescribed. The author, however, has surmounted all difficulties with admirable skill.'--ATHENAEUM. LORD JOHN RUSSELL BY STUART J. REID. With Portrait. Crown 8vo. 3_s._ 6_d._ The book contains a good deal of new material concerning the career of the last of the great Whig statesmen. The Dowager-Countess of Russell has given Mr. Reid access to her own journals, and has personally taken a lively interest in the book; while other relatives, intimate friends, and political associates have lent their assistance. * * * * * London: SAMPSON LOW, MARSTON & COMPANY, LIMITED, St. Dunstan's House, Fetter Lane, Fleet Street, E.C. * * * * * TRANSCRIBER'S NOTE: The original punctuation, language and spelling have been retained, except where noted [correction in brackets].
