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.
