“Very beautiful in feeling and occasionally striking and forcible in conception to a remarkable degree.”—Guardian.
“Mr. Robertson, of Brighton, is a name familiar to most of us, and honoured by all to whom it is familiar.”—Globe.
“These sermons are full of thought and beauty. There is not a sermon in the series that does not furnish evidence of originality without extravagance, of discrimination without tediousness, and of piety without cant or conventionalism.”—British Quarterly.
Esmond. By W. M. Thackeray, Esq.
A New Edition in One Volume, Crown 8vo, price 6s. cloth.
“Mr. Thackeray has selected for his hero a very noble type of the cavalier softening into the man of the eighteenth century, and for his heroine one of the sweetest women that ever breathed from canvas or from book since Raffaelle painted and Shakspeare wrote.”—Spectator.
“Apart from its special merits “Esmond” must be read just now as an introduction to “The Virginians.” It is quite impossible fully to understand and enjoy the latter story without a knowledge of “Esmond.” The new tale is in the strictest sense the sequel of the old, not only introducing the same characters, but continuing their history at a later period.”—Leader.
