“We have nothing but admiration for this very noble book. It is by far the most important the season has yet produced. It is filled with wisdom and sympathy, and in the Englishman of the title the author has created a _man_.”--_Literary World._ * * * * * “As thoroughly English as ‘Middlemarch’ or ‘Cranford.’”--_Sunday Times._ * * * * * “A thoroughly wholesome, sympathetic, effective story, the interest of which is sustained with unbroken continuity from its opening to its close.... Handled with remarkable adroitness, and manifesting no inconsiderable originality of characterisation. “Miss Pendered’s ‘Englishman’ possesses that width of observation and simplicity of purpose which lift it far above the average.”--_Daily Telegraph._ (W.
