"It is with satisfaction on taking up one of the most important contributions to history, to find the work so sympathetically and exactly translated as is M. Hanotaux's 'Contemporary France.' Such a translation fits the American reader to appreciate the work in all of its excellence.... The first of the four volumes challenges our attention from start to finish, because in it we recognize not only the work of a careful, trained scholar, but also that of the first-hand observer.... M. Hanotaux guides us with a very personal hand; on every page he gives recollections of the great men whom he himself has known.... The readers of this volume will await with keen interest the publication of the others. Together the four should form a monument of contemporary history indispensable to the library of the student either of recent history or present politics."—The Outlook.
