SOME PRESS OPINIONS.Daily Chronicle—
"A work of no small merit and ability. It supplies a long-felt want. Dr. Reich has evidently read up his subject with care and conscientiousness, and displays no small ability in marshalling an immense array of facts. He has presented us with an exceedingly lucid and pregnant account of one of the most original and fascinating literatures of Europe."
Sunday Times—
"Dr. Reich has done us a very real service, and his work should be widely known, and take a permanent place among our literary reference books."
The Globe—
"It should be in great demand among those who desire to add to their knowledge of European poetry and fiction."
Academy—
"An excellent piece of work, lucid, and well proportioned, displaying considerable critical faculty and great historical knowledge."
Bookseller—
"We hope the volume will find a wide circulation among educated English readers."

"Thomas Moore":Being Anecdotes, Bon-mots, and Epigrams from the Journal of Thomas Moore.
Edited, with Notes, by Wilmot Harrison, Author of "Memorable London Houses," etc. With Special Introduction by Richard Garnett, LL.D., and Frontispiece Portrait of Thomas Moore.
Crown 8vo. Cloth neat, 3/6. SOME PRESS OPINIONS.The Morning Leader—
"No happier beginning could have been made than by the anecdotes, bon-mots, and epigrams from the 'Journal of Thomas Moore.' The fame of Moore as a poet has sadly diminished since his death. All the more, therefore, as Mr. Richard Garnett, in his scholarly introduction demands, should we be glad to preserve his name and fame as a raconteur, a story-teller who carries us irresistibly back to the very atmosphere breathed by Byron and Washington Irving."
Literature—
"Mr. Garnett's introduction gives a delightful picture of the man and his social charm. The collection is a storehouse of good things said by men noted for the brilliance of their conversation. Much pleasure can be extracted, and no small knowledge of an intensely social period."
Pall Mall Gazette—
"Every one of the pages has sparkle and animation in it, Moore knew everybody worth knowing in his time, and he introduces us to men who have taken their places in history—not by any formidable description, but with an enjoyable joke and a good-natured story."
