II.
THE COMPLETE
WORKS OF SIR E. L. BULWER, BART.
In twelve six-shilling volumes, bound and lettered, beautifully illustrated.

"It is with great pleasure we see commenced an edition of the works of Sir Edward Bulwer; and our gratification is increased by the circumstance of their adopting a succinct form, being at once extremely neat and extremely cheap. Popular as they have deservedly been, both at home and abroad, they will thus obtain a wider circulation in their native land, and we shall no longer anffer the reproach of knowing that in America, and all over the continent of Europe, a writer of his distinguished genius in more universally read and more highly prized than in the country adorned by his talents. It is for these reasons that we so entirely approve of their issue in this shape: for the more they are read the higher will the reputation of their author rise."--Literary Gazette.



III.
In two vols., 8vo,
ATHENS; ITS RISE AND FALL:
WITH VIEWS OF THE ARTS, LITERATURE, AND SOCIAL LIFE OF THE ATHENIAN PEOPLE.
By Sir E. L. BULWER, Bart., M.P. M.A., Author of "England and the English," "Rie nzi."

"The rise and fall of Athens from the pen of Mr. Bulwer. What a theatre for description! what themes for the graphic narrator! We cannot too much applaud his general tone of moderation and candour. * * * These specimens, and other passages, combine a warm feeling of the great or the beautiful with a wakeful sagacity, ever throwing out abundance of new and fine observations."--Edinburgh Review.
"Years of labour have not been mispent in the research and consideration of the subject, and the style is worthy of the best names in this elevated part of our national literature."--Literary Gazette.
