Molloy, Joseph Fitzgerald. Sir Joshua and his circle. *$6.50. Dodd.
7–13429.
Less of a sketch of Sir Joshua Reynolds’ life and character than a portrayal of his relations to the group of men and women prominent in the literature and art of his day.
“Mr. Molloy has re-told the old stories fairly well, and produced the sort of book that very many people like to read.”

“The book certainly cannot be said to have been necessary; but it is written with such infectious good humour and apparent zest, the touch is so spirited and flowing, the local colour thrown on with so light and lavish a hand, that it may be skimmed with amusement and pleasure.”
