“The corrections which Mr. Collier has here given to the world are, we venture to think, of more value than the labors of nearly all the critics on Shakespeare's text put together.”—London Literary Gazette.
“It is a rare gem in the history of literature, and can not fail to command the attention of all the amateurs of the writings of the immortal dramatic poet.”—Ch'ston Cour.
“It is a book absolutely indispensable to every admirer of Shakespeare who wishes to read him understandingly.”—Louisville Courier.
“It is clear from internal evidence, that for the most part they are genuine restorations of the original plays. They carry conviction with them.”—Home Journal.
“This volume is an almost indispensable companion to any of the editions of Shakespeare, so numerous and often important are many of the corrections.”—Register, Philadelphia.
THE HISTORY OF THE CRUSADES.
By Joseph François Michaud. Translated by W. Robson, 3 vols. 12mo., maps, $3.75.
“It is comprehensive and accurate in the detail of facts, methodical and lucid in arrangement, with a lively and flowing narrative.”—Journal of Commerce.
“We need not say that the work of Michaud has superseded all other histories of the Crusades. This history has long been the standard work with all who could read it in its original language. Another work on the same subject is as improbable as a new history of the 'Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire.'”—Salem Freeman.
