'A scholarly and well-written introduction to the study of English philology.'—Times.
'It is pleasant to be able to say that this volume is very far above the ordinary level of its class.'—Manchester Guardian.
'To the teacher who has not always time nor opportunity to consult all the larger books upon which this is based, it will come as a boon. To the student of English literature who wishes to gain some intelligent knowledge of a subject closely connected with his own, it will be quite as welcome.'—Daily Chronicle.
'A fresh and valuable book.... A remarkably good condensation.... The book is an exceedingly suggestive one.'—Glasgow Herald.
