MACAULAY'S "LIFE OF PITT

Price 28.

Macaulay's "Life of Pitt" deserves to be: studied in schools and collèges more than it has been. It is the i-ipest fruit of his genius^ and the most perfect spécimen of his art. Unlike most of his essays, it is of flawlessexcellence, both in form and in matter. While advanced students will profit ':. criticising the style and correcting the bias of the essays, younger pupils will gain more by the study of a work which can with alL confidence be put before them as a model of literary composition and historical narrative.— Prefo.ee.
