The book is an universal storehouse of historical facts, classified, chronologically arranged, linked by succinct narrative, and brought down to the present times. To the historical student, and to all general readers, the work is invaluable for constant reference, if only for its copious and minutely-accurate dates; and it must form an indispensable complement to all libraries."-BRITANNIA.

"At once the noblest as well as the most perfect edition of the productions of the bard of Erin, which has ever yet been put into circulation for general use. In point of typographical luxury' it is not to be excelled by any book issued from the press; in the matter of accuracy and excellence it as far surpasses all those printed editions of Moore's poems which, to the eternal disgrace of the foreign booksellers, have inundated the foreign market, and occasionally our own, as light does darkness; while, in respect to that careful revision which the poet is known to have bestowed upon this edition, it boasts an advantage unknown to any other that may have preceded it, whether produced at home or abroad, since first the exquisite wooings of his muse became patent to the world.
