No one can understand or appreciate this admirable work, who has not, before entering upon it, become familiar with at least the leading events in English history; and no one has made any sensible advance towards the enviable character of a sound constitutional lawyer, who is not thoroughly familiar with the work. It is admirably calculated to complete the student's course of English History ; to gather up its results, to place its most important events in their true bearing, to enable him, in short, to determine their true character and value. The work is a sequel of the author's Middle Ages, and both of them should be studied in connexion. "The author rarely wanders far from the path he has marked out; he indulges in few effusions of fancy; he seldom engages in profound dis- cussions ; but like a lawyer in Westminster Hall, keeps closely to his brief, a consistency not to be dispraised." 3 Am.
