Letters of the English statesman, orator and author (1792-1878). He held many

advocate of parliamentary reform.
Mr Rollo Russell has wisely selected for the present work largely from the letters
dealing with general matters and but sparingly from those of a purely political nature,
thereby giving the work a greater interest to the general reader. A useful feature of
the book is the series of brief biographies of the principal correspondents whose letters
are included; there are a few good portraits. Condensed from Outlook (London), 1913.

"A loving, graceful picture of Mr Clemens in the last years of his life—first in
Bermuda and later at Stormfield—showing him specially in his relation with the children
he loved and in his friendship with H.H.Rogers. It supplements very happily
the account Paine's biography gives of this period...The photographic illustrations are
of great interest." A. L. A. booklist, 1913.
Victoria, queen of England. 9 2 V3i2Jd
Jerrold, Clare. Married life of Queen Victoria. 1913. Nash.
Continuation of "The early court of Queen Victoria." The volume is as much a
consideration of the character of the prince consort as of that of Queen Victoria. It
bears testimony to the enormous influence which he exerted and explains some of the
mistaken opinions regarding his personality.
