The Works of William Shakespeare [Cambridge Edition] [Vol. 1 of 9]: Introduction and Publisher's Advertising
Shakespeare, William
English drama
'Mr. Henry Kingsley has written a work that keeps up its interest from
the first page to the last--it is full of vigorous stirring life. The
descriptions of Australian life in the early colonial days are marked by
an unmistakable touch of reality and personal experience. A book which
the public will be more inclined to read than to criticise, and we
commend, them to each other.' --ATHENÆUM.
SECOND EDITION.
TOM BROWN AT OXFORD.
3 Vols. £1 11s. 6d.
'A book that will live. In no other work that we can call to mind are
the finer qualities of the English gentleman more happily portrayed.'
--DAILY NEWS.
'The extracts we have given can give no adequate expression to the
literary vividness and noble ethical atmosphere which pervade the whole
book.' --SPECTATOR.
TWENTY-EIGHTH THOUSAND.

By AN OLD BOY. Fcp. 8vo. 5s.

SCOURING OF THE WHITE HORSE.
By the Author of 'Tom's Brown's School Days.'

toned paper, gilt leaves, 8s. 6d.
'The execution is excellent.... Like "Tom Brown's School Days," the
"White Horse" gives the reader a feeling of gratitude and personal
esteem towards the author. The author could not have a better style, nor
a better temper, nor a more excellent artist than Mr. Doyle to adorn his
book.' --SATURDAY REVIEW.
