“We have much to learn from France, and M. Méline by constantly drawing examples from England makes his book as instructive reading for Englishmen as for his own countrymen.”

* Melville, Lewis, pseud. [Farmer George: a study of the life and character of George III.] 2v. **$7.50. Brentano’s.
“George III.’s home and court life, his relations with his ministers and other prominent persons of his reign are presented. Fully described, too, is the king’s trouble with Wilkes, as well as the attitude of his court and subjects toward the American colonies, from the Stamp act down to the acknowledgment of the United States of America.”—N. Y. Times.
“In their unambitious style Mr. Melville’s pages are readable enough.”

“The book may be popular, and, as it is better that people should know something about George III. than nothing, it will serve a purpose in the libraries.”
