“Mr. W. C. Hazlitt has published a very pretty and interesting little volume. It has many pictorial illustrations, which were supplied by Mr. Camden Hotten; and, above all, it contains a facsimile of the first page of Elia on ‘Roast Pig.’ It is well got up, and has a good portrait of Elia. There are also some letters and poems of Mary Lamb which are not easily accessible elsewhere.”—Westminster Review.
“Must be consulted by all future biographers of the Lambs.”—Daily News.
“Tells us a good deal that is interesting and something that is fairly new.”—Graphic.
“Very many passages will delight those fond of literary trifles; hardly any portion will fail to have its interest for lovers of Charles Lamb and his sister.”—Standard.
“Mr. Hazlitt’s work is very important and valuable, and all lovers of Elia will thank him for what he has done.”—Sunday Times.
“Will be joyfully received by all Lambites.”—Globe.
