CRITICAL NOTICES:
“The ease and spirit, the gentleness and force, the grace and energy, the descriptive and passionate power, the unstudied ease, and the consummate art of both imagery and diction which distinguish this remarkable writer, will soon make a place for him among the most interesting and distinguished of those who have attempted to write any portion of the wonderful history of England. Those who have not read any of these volumes can scarcely appreciate, without the trial, how rich a treat is in store for them.”—N. Y. Times.
“Since Macaulay's first volume, no historical work has appeared which, in brilliance of style as well as in keen analysis of character and events, can compare with the ten volumes of Froude's History of England.”—New York Independent.
“The style is excellent; sound, honest, forcible, singularly perspicuous English; at times with a sort of picturesque simplicity, pictures dashed off with only a few touches, but perfectly alive ... We have never to read a passage twice.... We see the course of events day by day, not only the more serious and important communications, but the gossip of the hour.... If truth and vivid reality be the perfection of history, much is to be said in favor of this mode of composition.”—London Quarterly.
Those desiring to purchase THE POPULAR EDITION OF FROUDE'S HISTORY can have the volumes sent post-paid to their address as soon as issued, by remitting $15 to the publishers.
