Russell, George William E. [Seeing and hearing.] *$2.50. Dutton.

“A volume of mixed gossip and reminiscence.... Mr. Russell knows English society intimately, and this volume is a sort of chorus accompanying it throughout its ‘season’ and on its travels. There are five chapters on the pleasures, or pangs of the table; others on social changes, purple and fine linen, suburban Sundays, hospitality, ostentation, publicity versus reticence, etc.”—Nation.
“On the whole, we like Mr. Russell best when he is touching on his earlier reminiscences.”
