“The longer and more important passages are full and clear in matter, always well presented, often in a masterly mode....  Dr. Giles is in thorough possession of his materials and of his intention, which produces the clearness that arises from mastery:  and he exhibits the same general bon hommie and chronicler disposition for minute and picturesque narrative which we noted in his life of Becket, with more of a critical spirit.”—­Spectator.
