Mr. James Douglas in the Star.—“The best book of reminiscences I have read for a long time. It teems with good stories about famous and familiar names.”
Morning Post.—“Genuinely a record of the doings of others, and full of anecdote and incident. Mr. Coleridge has written a delightful book, and has told many interesting things of many famous men.”
Daily Chronicle.—“Now this is the right sort of memories to put into print; memories that are fresh and bright, piquant, and yet never ill-natured, crowded with personal lights and anecdotes; in fine, a volume of which one says: ‘I would have liked to meet all those people and write about them as Mr. Coleridge has done.’”

AN EVENING IN MY LIBRARY AMONG THE ENGLISH POETS
Crown 8vo. 3s. 6d. net.
Guardian.—“A charmingly desultory set of essays, generous in appreciation, and not afraid to explore comparatively unbeaten tracks.”
Quarterly Review.—“Every moment is one of pure literature. He quotes his favourite poets freely, giving us not a line or two but often a whole poem. . . . There is many a racy criticism, and the humanitarian peeps out from not a few of them. It is a volume full of lovely verse, and one that will not only give unalloyed pleasure, but will cultivate a taste for the sweetest and purest poetry.”
Daily Mail.—“Mr. Coleridge has written a very pleasant and readable ramble among the poets. It is an anthology with a skilled writer leading one on from gem to gem with delightful comment.”
