St. James’s Gazette.—‘It deserves to be read, not only as a work of one of the most prominent politicians of the day, but for its intrinsic merits. It is a clever, thoughtful, and interesting biography.’
PITT. By Lord Rosebery.
Times.—‘Brilliant and fascinating.... The style is terse, masculine, nervous, articulate, and clear; the grasp of circumstance and character is firm, penetrating, luminous, and unprejudiced; the judgment is broad, generous, humane, and scrupulously candid.... It is not only a luminous estimate of Pitt’s character and policy, it is also a brilliant gallery of portraits. The portrait of Fox, for example, is a masterpiece.’
PEEL. By J. R. Thursfield, M.A.
Daily News.—‘A model of what such a book should be. We can give it no higher praise than to say that it is worthy to rank with Mr. John Morley’s Walpole in the same series.’
CHATHAM. By Frederic Harrison.
