The House on the Moor, v. 1/3
Oliphant, Mrs. (Margaret)
Fiction
"The present production is remarkable alike for its racy humour, its
sound philosophy, the felicity of its illustrations, and the delicacy of
its satire."--_Post._
VOL VIII.--CARDINAL WISEMAN'S RECOLLECTIONS OF THE LAST FOUR POPES.
"A picturesque book on Rome and its ecclesiastical sovereigns, by an
eloquent Roman Catholic. Cardinal Wiseman has here treated a special
subject with so much generality and geniality, that his Recollections
will excite no ill feeling in those who are most conscientiously opposed
to every idea of human infallibility represented in Papal
domination."--_Athenæum._
VOL. IX.--A LIFE FOR A LIFE.
BY THE AUTHOR OF "JOHN HALIFAX, GENTLEMAN."
"We are always glad to welcome Miss Muloch. She writes from her own
convictions, and she has the power not only to conceive clearly what it
is that she wishes to say, but to express it in language effective and
vigorous. In 'A Life for a Life' she is fortunate in a good subject, and
she has produced a work of strong effect."--_Athenæum._
VOL. X.--THE OLD COURT SUBURB.
BY LEIGH HUNT.
"A delightful book; that will be welcome to all readers, and most
welcome to those who have a love for the best kinds of reading."--_Examiner._
"A more agreeable and entertaining book has not been published since
Boswell produced his reminiscences of Johnson."--_Observer._
VOL. XI--MARGARET AND HER BRIDESMAIDS.
"We recommend all who are in search of a fascinating story to read this
work for themselves. They will find it well worth their while. There are
a freshness and originality about it quite charming, and there is a
certain nobleness in the treatment both of sentiment and incident which
is not often found."--_Athenæum._
VOL. XII--THE OLD JUDGE. BY SAM SLICK.
"This work is redolent of the hearty fun and strong masculine sense of
our old friend 'Sam Slick.' Every page is alive with rapid, fresh
sketches of character, droll, quaint, racy sayings, good-humoured
practical jokes, and capitally-told anecdotes"--_Chronicle._
VOL. XIII.--DARIEN. BY ELIOT WARBURTON.
"This last production, from the pen of the author of 'The Crescent and
the Cross,' has the same elements of a very wide popularity. It will
please its thousands."--_Globe._
VOL. XIV.--FAMILY ROMANCE; OR, DOMESTIC ANNALS OF THE ARISTOCRACY.
BY SIR BERNARD BURKE.
[_In December._
"It were impossible to praise too highly as a work of amusement this
most interesting book, whether we should have regard to its excellent
plan or its not less excellent execution. It ought to be found on every
drawing-room table."--_Standard._
