As a judge of romantic literature Mr. Saintsbury stands on a very
high eminence indeed, and few will deny that a critic of his taste
and penetration is well qualified to act as _cicerone_ to
excursionists into those fields of fiction.'--=Times.=
'We should like to notice many masterly touches of critical
knowledge and insight, many delightful remarks which no worthy
reader will pass over or forget, but this is really not necessary.
Everybody who knows Mr. Saintsbury's former books will read and
enjoy this book. There are few studies more fascinating than that of
French literature.'--=Spectator.=
