“High as the expectations excited by this description [in the Introduction] may be, they will not be disappointed. With rare exception, no source of information has been neglected by the editor, and the most inquisitive or exacting reader will find ready gathered to his hand, without the trouble of reference, almost every scrap of narrative, anecdote, gossip, scandal, or epigram, in poetry or prose, that he can possibly require for the elucidation of the caricatures.”—Quarterly Review.
“The publishers have done good service in bringing so much that is full of humour and of historical interest within the reach of a large class.”—Saturday Review.
“One of the most amusing and valuable illustrations of the social and polished life of that generation which it is possible to conceive.”—Spectator.
