Life of Sheridan. By Lloyd Sanders. 



" To say that Mr. Lloyd Sanders, in this volume, has produced the 

 best existing memoir of Sheridan is really to award much fainter praise 

 than the book deserves."' — Manclies.'er Exaviiner. 



" Rapid and workmanlike in style ; the author has evidently a good 

 practical knowledge of the stage of Sheridan's day." — Saturday Review. 



Life of Adam Smith. By R. B. Haldane, M.P. 



"Written with a perspicuity seldom exemplified when dealing with 

 economic science.'*' — Scotsman, 



"Mr. Haldane's handling of his subject impresses us as that of a man 

 who well understands his theme, and who knows how to elucidate it." — 

 Scottish Leader. 



"A beginner in political economy might easily do worse than take Mr. 

 Haldane's book as his first text-book," — GrapJiic. 



Life of Smollett. By David Hannay. 



"A capital record of a writer who still remains one of the great masters 

 of the English novel." — Saturday Revictu. 



"Mr. Hannay is excellently equipped for writing the life of Smollett. 

 As a specialist on the history of the eighteenth century navy, he is at a 

 great advantage in handling works so full of the sea and sailors as 

 Smollett's three principal novels. ^Moreover, he has a complete acquaint- 

 ance with the Spanish romancers, from whom Smollett drew so much of 

 his inspiration. His criticism is generally acute and discriminating ; and 

 his narrative is well arranged, compact, and accurate." — St. James's 

 Gazette. 



Life of Schiller. By Henry W. Nevinson. 



" This is a well-written little volume, which presents the leading facts of 

 the poet's life in a neatly-rounded picture." — Scotsman. 



" -Mr. Xevinson has added much to the charm of his book by his spirited 

 translations, which give excellently both the ring and sense of the 

 original. " — Manchester Guardian.

 very real and true things." — Mrs. Anne Thackeray Ritchie on "Thackeray
