“‘Sir Harry Hotspur,’ it appears to us, is decidedly more successful than any other of Mr. Trollope’s shorter stories. The author has shown in this brilliant novelette that he can interest his readers by rapid and direct sketching as well as by the minute details and patient evolution of little traits of character that mark his larger works. No reader who begins to read this book will lay it down until the last page is turned.”—Athenæum.
“A novel of remarkable power.”—Examiner.
“One of Mr. Trollope’s very best tales.”—Spectator.
