Second Series, being SPECIAL COLLECTIONS, and forming a Volume complete in itself. "This volume [SPECIAL COLLECTIONS] is a monument of industry such as few could pile, and affords striking evidence of the indomitable perseverance and varied learning of Southey.... The oftener we dip into these massive pages, the profounder grows our surprise that such a mass of information could have been thrown together by one man.... It is just the book to dive into for the spare half hour, assured of finding amusement and information in every page.... The index is so ample and well arranged, that any particular paragraph may be turned to without difficulty. Altogether it is a massive and elegant volume, got up without regard to expense, and as well adapted for the shelves of the mechanic's library, as for the study-table of the literary man."--_Eclectic Review_. Also a New Edition, in One Volume, price 18s.
