THE BOOK OF PRAISE.
From the Best English Hymn Writers. Selected and arranged by Sir Roundell Palmer. A New and Enlarged Edition.
"All previous compilations of this kind must undeniably for the present give place to the Book of Praise.... The selection has been made throughout with sound judgment and critical taste. The pains involved in this compilation must have been immense, embracing, as it does, every writer of note in this special province of English literature, and ranging over the most widely divergent tracts of religious thought."—Saturday Review.
THE FAIRY BOOK;
the Best Popular Fairy Stories. Selected and rendered anew by the Author of "John Halifax, Gentleman."
"A delightful selection, in a delightful external form; full of the physical splendour and vast opulence of proper fairy tales."—Spectator.
