Morning Post.—“ ... May be welcomed as an important addition to Austeniana ...; it is besides valuable for its glimpses of life in the Navy, its illustrations of the feelings and sentiments of naval officers during the period that preceded and that which followed the great battle of just one century ago, the battle which won so much but which cost us—Nelson.”
Globe.—“The book is doubly fortunate in its appearance, for it appeals not only to the lovers of Jane Austen’s novels, but also to those who value sidelights on the most stirring times of the Navy.”
