"... There is in it much valuable information derived from trustworthy 

 sources. . . ." 



Westminster Review. 



" Mr. Heath is quite right in his belief that such a book as he now publishes 

 is much needed. . . . The whole work is singularly free from dry statistics, and 

 will be welcomed by all classes of readers anxious to be easily informed on the 

 subject of which it treats. . . ." 



Athcnaum. 



" Mr. Heath's book is interesting and well written, and the author is entitled 

 to much praise for it"

Morning Advertiser. 



"... The author is clearly entitled to the gratitude of all who sincerely 

 care for the amelioration of the condition of the English peasant. . . ."

" Every observer of passing events will concur in Mr. Heath's assertion that a 

 comprehensive yet readable book on the English Peasantry had become a great 

 desideratum in our popular literature. ..."
