"The Savage Club has been happy in so admirable an historian as Mr. Watson.... Publisher, author, and Savage Club should rest equally content with what has been done. It is a book to buy and a book to treasure."—Tribune.
"Mr. Aaron Watson is to be congratulated on a book which people who have not been inside the Savage Club will appreciate, and which every member of that charmed circle will assuredly prize."—Standard.

A Literary History of the
English People
BY J. J. JUSSERAND.
VOLUME I
From the Origins to the Renaissance
OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.
"The execution of the task so far as it has proceeded at present is masterly. M. Jusserand's erudition is vast, but it does not overwhelm his sense of proportion nor distort his fine critical sense.... M. Jusserand has many advantages over Taine. His learning and his industry are certainly not less conspicuous, his critical method is less rigid and mechanical, his English sympathies are stronger and based on a much more familiar knowledge of English habits and English modes of thought; at the same time, like Taine, he is independent of purely English prejudices, and his literary judgments are those of a citizen of the great republic of letters which knows nothing of national or political boundaries. Altogether, the work is full of a rare attraction."—Times.
