"The 'Peerage' and the 'Landed Gentry' of Mr. Burke are two works
of public utility--constantly referred to by all classes of
society, and rarely opened without being found to supply the
information sought. They are accessions of value to our books of
reference, and few who write or talk much about English Peers and
English Landed Gentry, can well be looked on as safe authorities
without a knowledge of the contents of Mr. Burke's careful
compilations."--_Athenæum._
