TIMES: ' Miss Sichel has read much, approaches her subject without prejudice, and writes intelligently and well. Her book is as good a compendium of the period of Francis I. as any that we can name.'
M. E. Coleridge in THE GUARDIAN: 'Kings and queens, philosophers and poets, painters, printers, architects, come alive, and there is glowing colour, speech, movement everywhere.'
THE TIMES: 'A very remarkable contribution to the history of secondary education in England, not less novel in its conclusions than important in the documentary evidence adduced to sustain them.'
