"_I have divided the Speeches contained in these volumes into
groups. The materials for selection are so abundant, that I have been
constrained to omit many a speech which is worthy of careful perusal.
I have naturally given prominence to those subjects with which Mr.
Bright has been especially identified, as, for example, India,
America, Ireland, and Parliamentary Reform. But nearly every topic of
great public interest on which Mr. Bright has spoken is represented in
these volumes._"
