... Mr. Dobson's book is composed with
infinite literary tact, with precision, and a certain smiling grace,
and friendly and easy touch at once remarkable and charming. Mr.
Dobson is always accurate in his facts. He is fresh, vivacious, and
interesting in his conclusions."
Mr. W.L. COURTNEY in the _DAILY TELEGRAPH_.--"Mr. Dobson's study
is absolutely in the first rank, worthy to be put by the side of Sir
Leslie Stephen's criticism of George Eliot."
_WESTMINSTER GAZETTE_.--"We have nothing but praise to utter of
Mr. Dobson's contribution to 'English Men of Letters.'"
BROWNING. By G. K. CHESTERTON.
_TIMES_.-"The originality and suggestiveness of Mr. Chesterton's
work... his sanity and virility of temper are evident and refreshing."
Mr. W.L. COURTNEY in the _DAILY TELEGRAPH_.--"One of the most
illuminating and stimulating pieces of work which have been produced
in our not wholly critical age."
_ATHENAEUM_.--"This new volume of the 'English Men of Letters' is
one of the most refreshing in that admirable series."
_PILOT_.--"An interesting, entertaining, and even inspiring life
of a great poet."
CRABBE. By ALFRED AINGER.
_TIMES_.--"Canon Ainger has given us the book we should expect
from him, one full of sincerity, good taste, and good sense. The story
of the poet's uneventful life is admirably retold, with the quiet
distinction of a style which is intent on its own business and too
sure of producing its effect to care about forcing attention by
rhetorical or epigrammatic fireworks.
