TENNYSONIANA: Notes Critical and Bibliographical on the Works of Alfred Tennyson, D.C.L., Poet Laureate.

"He has done his work well, and his little book should be secured by those who would like all the assistance they can get in estimating, as they may some day desire to do, the influence of the Poet Laureate of Queen Victoria upon his generation, and of his generation upon him."—Pall Mall Gazette.

"This little book is curious and welcome to the student of Mr. Tennyson. It has been prepared with sedulous accuracy, and all its facts may be depended on."—Spectator.

"Let us warmly recommend the present little volume. It gives nearly everything that can be wanted in the shape of a Tennysonian bibliography."—Westminster Review.

"These notes will be found very valuable to the students of Tennyson's poems."—Victoria Magazine.

"A little volume which we can cordially recommend to those of our readers who deem the 'growth of a poet's mind an interesting study.'"—Notes and Queries.

BISHOP KEN'S CHRISTIAN YEAR: Hymns and Poems for the Festivals and Holidays of the Church.

"'Bishop Ken's Christian Year,' published by Mr. Pickering, is an exquisite edition of a book which would have been welcome in any shape. We are all familiar with the beautiful Morning and Evening Hymns.… Full of beautiful thoughts, beautifully expressed."—Times, Dec. 12, 1867.

"It is a praiseworthy collection, and one that is likely to find the favour it deserves."—Pall Mall Gazette.

"So quaint, yet so unaffected; so gentle, yet so free from effeminacy; so glowing to the core with the fire of genuine devotion."—Guardian.

"Every page bears the mark of that thoughtful tender reverence which we all of us associate with the name of Bishop Ken."—Literary Churchman.

"It is well worthy to be one of the devotional books of every churchman—and we would engage that any one who adds it to his or her tray of such books, will find after a year or so, that it has won a claim to be very near and dear as a companion through the Christian seasons."—Churchman.
