HARRIET HOSMER: LETTERS AND 
MEMORIES. Edited by Cornelia Carr. With 3 1 Illustrations. 
Demy 8vo. 12s. 6d. net. 
*** These pages are full of interest to the general reader, owing to the fact 
that Harriet Hosmerwas on intimate terms with so many of her most famous 
contemporaries in the World of Art and Letters. Particularly valuable will be 
fonnd the authentic and charmingly recounted information regarding the home 
life of Robert Browning and his wife. The correspondence shows that in nearly 
every case the letters of these celebrities were never intended for print. They 
are, all the more perhaps, indications ol the true characteristics of the writers. 
THE GREATEST HOUSE AT CHELSEY. By 
Randall Davies. With 18 Illustrations. Demy 8vo. 10s. 6d. net. 
*** This is a most fascinating account of the great house built at Chelsea in 
1520, by Sir Thomas More, and occupied successively by various notable people, 
among whom were Sir Arthur Gorges, the Duke of Buckingham, and finally 
Sir Hans Sloane. Each of the successive owners is dealt with by Mr. Randall 
Davies in most entertaining fashion, and a great deal of historical detail is 
brought together which has never seen the light before. The illustrations are 
of great interest.
