HANDBOOKS OF ENGLISH LITERATURE

EDITED BY PROFESSOR HALES.

“The admirable series of handbooks edited by Professor Hales is rapidly taking shape as one of the best histories of our literature that are at the disposal of the student.... When complete there is little doubt that we shall have a history of English literature which, holding a middle course between the rapid general survey and the minute examination of particular periods, will long remain a standard work.”—Manchester Guardian.
