The Nation: "It treats the history of English literature as closely connected with general history. The style is interesting, the conception broad and clear, the biographical details nicely subordinated to matters more important, and, as we said of the book in its earlier form, not even the dullest pupil can study it without feeling the historical and logical continuity of English Literature."

Representative English Literature.
