“The genuineness of the local coloring is undeniable, and the deft manipulation of both characters and incident shows unusual talent. The book has a charm. The interest is kept up throughout.” W. M. Payne.

“To an English speaking, American thinking reader much of it seems futile and much else of it dull. Similarly all of it seems to lack that sense of humor which is nothing more or less than a sense of proportion.”

[*] Zacher, Albert. Rome as an art city. [*]$1. Scribner.
A volume in “The Langham series of art monographs.” “This little book gives a rapid but comprehensive survey of the art of Rome, piloting the reader with considerable skill through the successive phases—classical, Christian, renaissance—down to the present day, and leaving him at last in a position ‘to distinguish the characteristic note in her art, and to divine the secret of its world-wide reputation.’ ... The scheme of the book is suitably assisted by a few photographs of typical buildings and pictures.”—Ath.
[*] “The general tone is modest.”
