Sir James Y. Simpson. By Eve Blantyre Simpson.
"It is indeed long since we have read such a charmingly-written biography as this little Life of the most typical and 'Famous Scot' that his countrymen have been proud of since the time of Sir Walter.... There is not a dull, irrelevant, or superfluous page in all Miss Simpson's booklet, and she has performed the biographer's chief duty—that of selection—with consummate skill and judgment."—Daily Chronicle.
Thomas Chalmers. By Professor W. Garden Blaikie.
"The most notable feature of Professor Blaikie's book—and none could be more commendable—is its perfect balance and proportion. In other words, justice is done equally to the private and to the public life of Chalmers, if possible greater justice than has been done by Mrs. Oliphant."—Spectator.
James Boswell. By W. Keith Leask.
"One of the finest and most convincing passages that have recently appeared in the field of British Biography."—Morning Leader.
Tobias Smollett. By Oliphant Smeaton.
"Mr. Smeaton has produced a very readable and vivid biography."—Academy.
