GUARDIAN.—­“Miss Lawless is to be congratulated upon having produced what is very nearly the ideal life of Maria Edgeworth.  Within little more than two hundred pages she has included all necessary facts, and has achieved a living presentment of a most estimable and lovable character.”

    STANDARD.—­“Miss Lawless has drawn a most acceptable portrait
    of a delightful woman.”

    GLOBE.—­“A memoir of great interest.”

HOBBES.  By Sir LESLIE STEPHEN, K.C.B.

TIMES.—­“One of the most remarkable additions to the ’Men of Letters.’...  The admirable judgment and remarkable knowledge of Sir Leslie Stephen have rarely been seen to more advantage than in these pages.”

    GLOBE.—­“Valuable little work.”

    PALL MALL GAZETTE.—­“One of the happiest examples of Sir
    Leslie’s marvellous success in making biography unfailing in its
    interest.”

ADAM SMITH.  By FRANCIS W. HIRST.

    THE WORLD.—­“A careful and sympathetic survey of the life,
    work, and teaching of the famous political economist.”

    TIMES.—­“Mr. Hirst’s interesting sketch leaves the impression
    of a life singularly full, rich, and successful, lightened and warmed
    even, towards the close by the sunshine of friendship and affection.”
