Lyford, James Otis. Life of Edward H. Rollins: a political biography. $1.50. Estes.
6–41541.
“The political activities of New Hampshire, which state Rollins represented in both Congressional houses, are here set forth in sufficient detail to make the book of interest as a study in that field. But it chiefly aims to set Senator Rollins, an able, conscientious, useful man rightly in history.”—Ind.
“His style is clear and graceful, and skill is shown in the selection and arrangement of salient facts, as well as due sense of proportion. It is the only book which has thus far appeared which gives a clear, orderly and accurate narrative of the political life of New Hampshire during this important epoch, and by his painstaking labor Mr. Lyford has made a distinct contribution to the history of the state.” James F. Colby.
