SATURDAY REVIEW.
THE EARL OF ABERDEEN
BY SIR ARTHUR GORDON, G.C.M.G. &c.
With Portrait. Crown 8vo. 3_s._ 6_d._
'This little book, unlike its companion volumes, contains original
documents of solid historical importance, and hitherto no authentic
biography of Lord Aberdeen has existed, and the editor of the series
certainly made a large demand upon Sir Arthur Gordon's good nature
when he requested a biography compressed within the limits
prescribed. The author, however, has surmounted all difficulties
with admirable skill.'--ATHENAEUM.
LORD JOHN RUSSELL
BY STUART J. REID.
With Portrait. Crown 8vo. 3_s._ 6_d._
The book contains a good deal of new material concerning the career
of the last of the great Whig statesmen. The Dowager-Countess of
Russell has given Mr. Reid access to her own journals, and has
personally taken a lively interest in the book; while other
relatives, intimate friends, and political associates have lent
their assistance.
