History Of Our Own Times,
from the Accession of Queen Victoria to the General Election of 1880. By Justin McCarthy, M.P.
"Criticism is disarmed before a composition which provokes little but approval. This is a really good book on a really interesting subject, and words piled on words could say no more for it…. Such is the effect of its general justice, its breadth of view, and its sparkling buoyancy, that very few of its readers will close these volumes without looking forward with interest to the two [since published] that are to follow."—Saturday Review.
Crown 8vo. cloth extra, 5s.
