and with such an arrangement, in many points new as well as ingenious, that it may be readily grasped and retained."-Ath., No. 2471. "The secret of this extraordinary success it is not difficult to divine. Mr. Green's style is eminently readable and attractive. A lively imagination, not always under the most rigid control, imparts its own colours to the dry details of history, where a more scrupulous or conscientious writer would have wearied himself, and fatigued his readChron-ers, unwilling to venture beyond the arid region of facts.

Green, John Richard, M.A., LL.D., 1837-1883, b. at Oxford, Eng.; educated at Magdalen College School and at Jesus College, Oxford, and while an undergraduate published some papers in a local journal on Oxford in the eighteenth century. In 1860 he took his degree and was ordained. He became curate of St. Barnabas, King's Square, E.C., London, and was afterwards vicar of St. Philip's, Stepney. His health, always delicate, was seriously impaired by the labors of an East London parish, and particularly by his exertions during the cholera outbreak of 1867, and this fact, together with intellectual difficulties in regard to his position, led him to resign his parish for literary occupation. In 1868 he was made librarian to the Archbishop of Canterbury at Lambeth. For some years he wrote regularly for the Saturday Review, and contributed to other periodicals. His two latest works were written in the midst of a hopeless struggle with consumption. 1. A Short History of the English People: with Maps and Tables, Lon., 1874, p. 8vo. (Over thirty thousand copies were sold in the first year.)

If in some parts of his work we trace the conscientious study and examination of original authorities, in others he has trusted exclusively to secondary sources, attempting little more than a reproduction, after his own fashion, without exercising much independent judgment, and not always with rigid accuracy, of the opinions and conclusions of his predecessors."-J.

Many interpolations have been made in Mr. Green's text without any mark to distinguish them from his own work, , many of his statements of fact, and even some of the opinions he expressed, have been modified or completely altered, and several alterations have been made in arrangement. In almost every case the book has been improved by this revision."-Sat. Rev., 1xv. 143.

"Though the materials of the earlier book [the "Short History of the English People"] have been woven into it, and though we recognize many of the most brilliant passages as old friends, still the arrangement is so altered, and the amount of fresh matter is so large, that it is substantially a new work. Almost the whole of the consti

tutional part has been rewritten in accordance with the views of Professor Stubbs. Moreover, he has to some extent clipped the wings of his imagination, which in the earlier work sometimes took rather lofty flights. In short, the new book, while retaining the life and sparkle of its altogether a more ripe and complete piece of work. predecessor, is better proportioned, calmer in tone, and Mr. Green's belief in the rights of conscience is so strong that he can give due meed of admiration alike to the is at the same time neither with Protestant nor Romanist Protestant martyrs and confessors under Elizabeth; but it that his own sympathies lie. His heart is with the men who may be looked upon as the spiritual ancestors of the 'advanced thinkers' of our own day,-with the group of scholars of the New Learning,' among whom Colet, Eraswith which Mr. Green has traced the various currents of mus, and More stand pre-eminent. The care and pains religious thought can hardly be too highly praised.. Taking a general survey of the four volumes, we should be inclined to say that Mr. Green is at his best as an historian of mediæval times. . . . No man can be equally eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries form the period in sympathy with all centuries, and, on the whole, the with which Mr. Green has least in common."-Sal. Rev., xliv. 44, 745, 813; xlv. 661; 1. 214.

"Mr. Green has recovered the lost art of historical narration. This is his peculiar title to fame, and it is one which no contemporary English or American writer shares with him. Impartial critics must, in estimating the causes of Mr. Green's success, add that he exhibits a boldness and originality in the judgment of historical char. acters which, if it increase the attractiveness of his work, is not always calculated to gain the confidence of cautious readers."-Nation, xxvii. 227.

"Though this book cannot be expected to be as popular as the 'Short History,'-for the average man is likely to shrink from a whole volume on what Canon Stubbs still permits him to call the Heptarchy,we believe that students will rate it as high as, if not indeed higher than, any of Mr. Green's former works."-Sat. Rev., liii. 396.

"A single volume of the modest dimensions and unpretending appearance of a school-book; but the wealth of material, of learning, thought, and fancy which the author has lavished upon it might easily have supplied a stately library work of some eight or ten volumes. Some previous knowledge, some time and attention, may be required rightly to appreciate the extent of Mr. Green's historical scholarship, or the depth and thoughtfulness of his comments on historical events; but the most indolent reader can hardly take it up without finding that he has lighted upon a book which is never commonplace and never dull.... If Mr. Green's style has a fault, it is the rather unusual one of excess of brilliancy. At times we are carried away with its passionate earnestness or fascinated by its poetry and tender feeling, but at other times we begin to wish for repose, and that the author would take things coolly.... The value of his book lies above all in the power it shows of conceiving a period as a whole, of tracing the causes and results of events, and of follow-scientific work just published, which deals with much the ing the great currents of thought."-Sat. Rev., xxxix, 51. What he seems to profess, and what we think he makes good, is to have acquired all the newest knowledge upon a very large section of history, and to tell what he knows in such a style that every one may read it with little effort,

His present book is a piece of real original research. We do not say that it probes very deep into the fundamental question. As far as scholarship goes, it cannot compare with Mr. Elton's profoundly learned and broadly same period; but looking at it as an essay written wholly within the narrow bounds of Mr. Freeman's Teutonic school, and based almost entirely upon the documentary evidence, it deserves high praise for its thoroughness and its general ability. . . . Indeed, two-thirds of the book

may be accepted gratefully, without any reservation, by historians of every school, as a valuable contribution to the clearing up of perhaps the darkest period in our whole annals."-GRANT ALLEN: Acad., xxi. 111.

"It is difficult to criticise a book which we have no op-
portunity of judging as a whole. It follows as a matter of
course that this volume cannot be placed upon the same
level with The Making of England.' But we can see
that there were materials here that might have made it as
successful, and would probably have made it even more
popular than the previous one. As it stands, it is neces-
sarily open to criticism upon many points."-Sat. Rev., lvi.chusetts: vol. i., Groton, 1887, Svo.

"Of the four parts into which the work is . . . divided, the first... is a literal compilation (with brief résumés) from Russian official books on the recruiting, organization, armament, administration, and tactics of the army: the third, ... a short sketch of the campaign in Armenia, based on no personal observation by the author; and the fourth,... on the defence and attack of fortified positions, interesting only to specialists; the second part, .. on the campaign in Bulgaria, forms the main portion of the whole, the most valuable to the general public, as it is the most extensive and interesting."-Nation, xxix. 227.

"One of the most important contributions to military history which have appeared for many years.. The book, as Lieutenant Greene admits,-and as perhaps was only natural from the kind reception he received, has a bias towards the Russian side, a stronger bias, indeed, than the writer is aware of; but the aim at impartiality' is as clear as the spirit of accuracy and the painstaking ability which have been brought to bear on the compilation."Sat.
