“All unconsciously the Radical parson reveals to us in this book a very charming and thoroughly human personality. A college don, a schoolmaster, and then, in later years, the incumbent of a college living, Mr. Tuckwell first attracted public attention by his unconventional methods of working his parish.... He was getting on in years before he delivered his first political speech, though ... he had delivered nearly a thousand orations before he decided to retire.... There are many political reminiscences of Gladstone, and indeed of many other famous men.”—Acad.
“Mr. Tuckwell’s latest volume is full of entertainment.”
