“Mr. Platt has worked out an idea so striking for its attractiveness and utility that, perceiving it, we at once go to work wondering that somebody else had not executed it before him.  He has gone over the vast and superb areas of John Ruskin’s Writings, and cutting out one block here and another there, as it has suited his purpose, has put all these parts together again into a literary mosaic, constituting a clear and harmonious system of art principles, wherein Ruskin all the while is the teacher.  He has reduced Ruskin to a code.  On the whole, we see not what this book lacks of being a complete text-book of the Gospel of Art according to St. John Ruskin.”—­Christian Union.
