PREFACE.

In making the accompanying selection from the Biographies and Portraits already published in the Photographic Portraits of Men of Eminence,' the compiler has been guided by the desire of making it as far as possible a "representative" volume of the position taken by the great names of the present century, in the various branches of literature, in science, and in art. Many of these names have become "household words among us. Since the first publication of the biographies, several of those whose portraits are here given have been removed by death. The biographies are in all cases rendered complete to the present time.

دو

Any single Biography and Portrait may be had separately, price 1s. 6d.

December, 1867.
