"
ROSSETTI. By ARTHUR C. BENSON.
_TIMES_.--"A very good book, full of well-chosen, facts and of
discreet sympathy with a character that needs a good deal of
understanding."
_PILOT_.--"Mr. Benson displays not only a delicate sympathy, but
a penetration and a sanity of judgment that enable him to put before
us not merely a plausible, but a convincing portrait of a man who
twenty years after his death, in spite of changing fashions,
exercises, as in his own day, a strange and potent spell over the
imagination."
MARIA EDGEWORTH. By the Hon. EMILY LAWLESS.
_GUARDIAN_.--"Miss Lawless is to be congratulated upon having
produced what is very nearly the ideal life of Maria Edgeworth. Within
little more than two hundred pages she has included all necessary
facts, and has achieved a living presentment of a most estimable and
lovable character."
_STANDARD_.--"Miss Lawless has drawn a most acceptable portrait
of a delightful woman."
_GLOBE_.--"A memoir of great interest."
HOBBES. By Sir LESLIE STEPHEN, K.C.B.
_TIMES_.--"One of the most remarkable additions to the 'Men of
Letters.'... The admirable judgment and remarkable knowledge of Sir
Leslie Stephen have rarely been seen to more advantage than in these
pages."
_GLOBE_.--"Valuable little work."
_PALL MALL GAZETTE_.
