OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.
Madame Roland.By Mathilde Blind.
"Full of excellent material, biographical -and critical, and a model of careful and conscientious workmanship....As it stands, the book is more readable than most of the current novels, and is altogether worthy of Miss Blind's high reputation."—Pictorial World.
"Few volumes of the Eminent Women Series are more interesting."—Morning Post.
"A book which is strong, pathetic, and deeply interesting."—Graphic.
Susanna Wesley.By Eliza Clarke.
"Mrs. Clarke deals with the subject de novo, and under special advantages, being not only connected with the Wesley family, but acquainted with members of it and their friends; and the book may be recommended as the carefully-written story of a truly useful and impressive life."—Globe.
"The narrative is one of the deepest interest, and deserves to be carefully read to the end. The author has done her work with much ability and in an excellent spirit, and we can speak of it only in terms of praise."—Queen.
"A valuable addition to a delightful series, and will, we hope, be as widely read as it deserves."—Record.
"Those who read the memoir will feel grateful to the author for making 'The Mother of the Wesleys' a real person to them."—Saturday Review.
Mrs. Siddons.By Mrs. A. Kennard.
"This is an interesting account of the great artist whom a rival could describe as 'all truth and daylight,' and whose astonishing success seems to have been the result of hard work as much as of genius....The 'Eminent Women Series' is decidedly-richer for this readable volume."—St. James's Gazette.
"The best memoir of the great actress that has yet appeared."—Manchester Examiner.
"Mrs. Kennard writes in a pleasant style, and wisely allows Mrs. Siddons to tell her own tale, by means of her letters, as frequently as space permits. The person, character, and achievements of the actress are brought clearly and picturesquely before the reader, and the book is likely to extend the fame of an artist concerning whose remarkable powers tradition is even now not silent."—Globe.
