“ Fullin references and authority, systematic and formal in division, with enough 
of life in the style to counteract the dryness inseparable from its brevity, and 
exhibiting the results rather than the principles of investigation. Mr. Harp- 
Wick isto be congratulated on the successful achievement of a difficult task,” 
—CHRISTIAN REMEMBRANCER. 
“ He has bestowed patient and extensive reading on the collection of his materials ; 
he has selected them with judgment ; and he presents them in an equable aud 
compact style.” SPECTATOR. " 
“Toa good method and good materials Mr. Harpwick adds that great virtue, 
a perfectly transparent style. We did not expect to find great literary qualities 
in such a manual, but we have found them; we should be satissied in this 
‘respect with conciseness and intelligibility ; but while this book has both, it is 
also elegant, highly finished, and highly interesting.’—NONCONFORMIST. 
IV. 
History of the Book of Common Prayer, 
together with a Rationale of the several Offices. By Francis 
Procter, M.A., Vicar of Witton, Norfolk, formerly Fellow of 
St. Catharine’s College, Cambridge. Fourth Edition, revised and 
enlarged. Crown 8vo. cloth, 10s. 6d. 
“Mr. Procter’s ‘ History of the Book of Common Prayer’ is by far the best 
commentary extant. ... .. Not only do the present illustrations embrace the 
whole range of original sources indicated by Mr. PALMER, but Mr. PROCTER 
compares the present Book of Common Prayer with the Scotch and American 
forms; and he frequently sets out in full the Sarum Offices. As a manual of 
extensive information, historical and ritual,imbued with sound Church princi- 
ples, we are entirely satisfied with Mn. PROCTER’s important volume.” 
CHRISTIAN REMEMBRANCER. 
“ It is indeed a complete and fairly-written history of the Liturgy ; and from the 
dispassionate way in which disputed points are touched on, will prove to many 
troubled consciences what ought to be known to them, viz.:—that they may, 
without fear of compromising the principles of evangelical truth, give their assent 
and consent to the contents of the Book of Common Prayer. MR. Procter haa 
done a great service to the Church by this admirable digest.”
