“Clever and sagacious writing.”—Athenæum.

“As a collection of papers which, through all their whimsical fancies, develope a political system with an earnestness and a consistency that are rare, we can cordially recommend Mr. Hollingshead’s book.”—Leader and Saturday Analyst.

“Mr. Hollingshead has lost nothing of his dramatic power.”—Critic.

“The stories are no less interesting and amusing than instructive.”—Morning Star.

“Mr. Hollingshead has considerably widened his range of humorous illustration, still keeping, however, to the field of political economy.”—Daily News.

Gog and Magog; or, the History of the Guildhall Giants. With Some Account of the Giants which Guard English and Continental Cities. By F. W. FAIRHOLT, F.S.A.

WITH ILLUSTRATIONS ON WOOD BY THE AUTHOR, COLOURED AND PLAIN.

⁂ The critiques which have appeared upon this amusing little work have been uniformly favourable. The Athenæum pronounces it a perfect model of successful antiquarian exposition, readable from the first line to the last. The Art Journal devotes a considerable space to the little work, and congratulates the author upon his success. The Leader contributes two full columns of eulogy. The Builder directs its readers to purchase it. The Critic says, in a long article, that it thoroughly explains who these old Giants were, the position they occupied in popular mythology, the origin of their names, and a score of other matters, all of much interest in throwing a light upon fabulous portions of our history.
