LIFE OF HAWTHORNE. By Moncure Conway.
“It is a delightful causerie—pleasant, genial talk about a most interesting man. Easy and conversational as the tone is throughout, no important fact is omitted, no valueless fact is recalled; and it is entirely exempt from platitude and conventionality.”—The Speaker.
LIFE OF SCHOPENHAUER. By Professor Wallace.
“We can speak very highly of this little book of Mr. Wallace’s. It is, perhaps, excessively lenient in dealing with the man, and it cannot be said to be at all ferociously critical in dealing with the philosophy.”—Saturday Review.
LIFE OF SHERIDAN. By Lloyd Sanders.
“To say that Mr. Lloyd Sanders, in this little volume, has produced the best existing memoir of Sheridan, is really to award much fainter praise than the work deserves.”—Manchester Examiner.
LIFE OF THACKERAY. By Herman Merivale and F. T. Marzials.
“The monograph just published is well worth reading, ... and the book, with its excellent bibliography, is one which neither the student nor the general reader can well afford to miss.”—Pall Mall Gazette.
LIFE OF CERVANTES. By W. E. Watts.
