Notable literary men and women of the Victorian era people Mr. Crane’s book, among them Tennyson, Irving, William Morris, Rossetti, Burne-Jones, Holman Hunt, Stevenson, Henley, Whistler and Leighton. “A feature of the book is the prominence given to the author’s socialistic opinions, in which he followed with the devotion of a pupil and the accuracy of a copyist those of William Morris.” (Lond. Times.)


“The proof-reader has been careless and many small inaccuracies in names &c., are to be found. As a document for the student of the domestic history of our times, an agreeable, chatty volume of reminiscences for the casual reader and above all as the monument of a delicate personality, this book has an assured place.”

“We have a long autobiography, crowded with trivial detail, interesting, no doubt, to the circle of those immediately concerned, but not especially enlivening to the world at large. Where detail would be of interest it is often lacking.”

“The story of his own success is modestly revealed. The book shows that among the many crafts in which Mr. Crane has been interested that of the writer is not excepted.”
