NELSON. By John Knox Laughton.
Saturday Review.—‘The obligation laid upon him to be brief, and his own anxiety to leave untold nothing of first-rate importance, have combined to give us an almost ideal short life of Nelson.’
WOLFE. By A. G. Bradley.
Times.—‘It appears to us to be very well done. The narrative is easy, the facts have been mastered and well marshalled, and Mr. Bradley is excellent both in his geographical and in his biographical details.’
COLIN CAMPBELL (Lord Clyde). By Archibald Forbes.
Times.—‘A vigorous sketch of a great soldier, a fine character, and a noble career.... Mr. Forbes writes with a practised and lively pen, and his experience of warfare in many lands stands him in good stead in describing Lord Clyde’s services and campaigns.’
GENERAL GORDON. By Colonel Sir William Butler.
Spectator.—‘This is beyond all question the best of the narratives of the career of General Gordon that have yet been published.’
HENRY THE FIFTH. By Rev. A. J. Church.
Scotsman.—‘No page lacks interest; and whether the book is regarded as a biographical sketch or as a chapter in English military history it is equally attractive.’
