0F JAMES 



By PERCY FITZGERALD, M.A. With Four Portraits. 



Two vols., demy 8vo., cloth extra, 24?. 



" M . r , - Fitzgerald has^ written two very entertaining volumes. In these volumes, in which there is not a single dull chapter, we have a 

 ery lifelike picture of " Bozzy." . . . Mr. Fitzgerald's biography of this extraordinary man will no doubt find its way into every well- 

 appointed library." — Matuhester E-camhiar. 



"That it is an entertaining and interesting book is beyond doubt." — Scotsman. 

 The author has carefully sifted a considerable amount of biographical material, studied Boswell's writings with diligence and acuteness, 

 followed him in his wanderings, and produced as a result a most readable life of a very interesting person. We congratulate the author on 

 the way in which he has performed his task, and heartily commend his ably planned and well execute 1 biography to the general reader." — 

 St. James's Gazette. 



"The author has furnished ample materials for forming a judg nent, and has justified his choice of Boswell as the subject for a 

 lengthened biography, and apart from the ligat thrown on Boswell's character the book is full of interest."— Standard. 



_ " The result of many years' preparation and painstaking search i. the present most welcome contribution to a subject of apparently 

 inexhaustible interest. . . . Boswell has earned widespread gratitude, and in Mr. Fitzgerald's lively, genial, and entertaining pages we 

 discover another source of obligation to his inimitable unheroic hero." — Daily News.
