STERNE'S SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY THROUGH FRANCE AND ITALY. With a Memoir of the author, by E. L. Blanchard. With numerous engravings.
"A more graceful gift book has seldom appeared than the one in which we here find reprinted not the least charming among the masterpieces of our national literature. Laurence Sterne has long been treasured among our classics; and hence any republication of his delightful writings is at all times peculiarly acceptable to the majority of our intelligent and discerning population.... Mr. Blanchard's charming biography is happily associated with the very tasteful and appropriate embellishments scattered through the volume, from the pencil of Tony Johannot. Altogether the new issue of 'Sterne's Sentimental Journey,' will prove, on examination, to be a worthy addition to any library, as well as an elegant work for the table of a drawing-room or a boudoir. The merits of the original text and of the newly-compiled memoir have been adequately responded to by the excellence visible both in the illustrations and the typography."—The Sun.
