"Mr. Grenville-Murray's pages sparkle with cleverness and with a
shrewd wit, caustic or cynical at times, but by no means excluding a
due appreciation of the softer virtues of women and the sterner
excellences of men. The talent of the artist (Mr. Barnard) is akin
to that of the author, and the result of the combination is a book
that, once taken up, can hardly be laid down until the last page is
perused."--_Spectator._

"Mr. Sala's best work has in it something of Montaigne, a great deal
of Charles Lamb--made deeper and broader--and not a little of Lamb's
model, the accomplished and quaint Sir Thomas Brown. These 'Dutch
Pictures' and 'Pictures Done With a Quill' should be placed
alongside Oliver Wendell Holmes's inimitable budgets of friendly
gossip and Thackeray's 'Roundabout Papers.' They display to
perfection the quick eye, good taste, and ready hand of the born
essayist--they are never tiresome."--_Daily Telegraph._]
