" It is scarcely surprising that Harrison Ainsworth should have secured to himself 

 a very wide popularity, when we consider how happily he has chosen his themes. 

 Sometimes, by the luckiest inspiration, he has chosen a romance of captivating and 

 enthralling fascinations, such as ' Crichton,' the 'Admirable Crichton.' Surely no 

 one ever hit upon a worthier hero of romance, not from the days of Apuleius to 

 those of Le Sage or of Bulwer Lytton. Sometimes the scene and the very title of 

 his romance have been some renowned structure, a palace, a prison, or a fortress. 

 It is thus with the Tower of London,' ' Windsor Castle,' ' Old St. Paul's.' Scarcely 

 less ability, or, rather, we should say, perhaps more correctly, scarcely less adroit- 

 ness in the choice of a new theme, in the instance of one of his latest literary pro- 

 ductions, viz., the ' Star Chamber.' But the readers of Mr. Ainsworth and they 

 now number thousands upon thousands need hardly be informed of this : and now 

 that a uniform illustrated edition of his works is published, we do not doubt bat thiit 

 this large number of readers even will be considerably increased." Sun.

the length and breadth of the land. It is a subject that gives excellent scope to a 



Writer of fiction ; and Mr. Ainsworth, by skiliul treatment, has rendered it most 



entertaining. The materials are put together with dramatic force." Examiner.
