 with Engravings, 16s. 



" • The Boscobel Tracts ' is a very curious book, and about as good an example of single subject histo- 

 rical collections as may be found. Originally undertaken, or at least completed, at the suggestion of the 

 late Bishop Copplestoiie, in 1827, it was carried out with a degree of judgment and taste not always found 

 in works of a similar character."— i^>ecta(or.

" We ccrtamly never saw a -more damaging exposure, and it is something worth notice that much of it 

 appeared in ' Blackwood's Magazine ' during the lifetime of Lord Macaulay, but he never attempted to 

 make any reply. The charges are so direct, and urged in such unmistakable language, that no writer 

 who valued his character for either accuracy of fact or fairness in comment w ould let them remain un- 

 answered if he had any reason to give." — Gentleman's Mayaziiie.

" This book contains by far the most vivid picture of Scottish life and manners that has been given to 

 the public since the days of Sir Walter Scott In bestowing upon it this high praise, we make no excep- 

 tion, not even in favour of Lord Cockburn's ' Memonab '—the book which resembles it most, and which 

 ranks next to it in interest."— i'dutbur^/t Review.
