Taylor, Marie Hansen (Mrs. Bayard Taylor). On two continents. [**]$2.75. Doubleday.
Mrs. Taylor was the daughter of the noted German mathematician and astronomer Hansen, and in this book of memoirs she speaks of her girlhood in Gotha, her meeting with her husband, their marriage, their travels, and of her husband’s literary and diplomatic career. Her book is chatty and entertaining in style, and her anecdotes of the Brownings, the Stoddards, Horace Greeley, the Cary sisters, Thackeray, and other famous men and women of letters with whom she and her husband came in contact are of particular interest.
[*] “Though she is rather apt to devote four or five pages to an incident for which half a page would be ample, she always rambles pleasantly.”
