The Monthly Reviewers, aft....r having spoken c.l the u .in
of such a Work as the present, process' to :late their opinion
as I'd:lows :

" Fortunately fur the public, this task has devolved on a
gentleman, whose talents and opportunities eminently qua-
li!sy him fur discharging it with fidelity and reputation, 'Die
high expectations with which we sat down to this book have
not been disappointed : and we are enabled to commend equal-
ly the propriety of the p'an, and the diligence of the execu-
tion. Accuracy of painting, and perspicuity of expre:sion,
distinguish the present description: from those of many of
the author's predecessors. The candour, judgment, and dis-
crimination with which he has select:ad his materials; the diffi-
dence with which he record: doubtful allegations; the temper
with which he prosecutes his inquiries, removed alike from
scepticism and credulity ; his apparent freedom from pm-con-
ceived opinions; his uniform and respectful intimations of the
sources whence he derives his materials; and the singular feli-
city with which he has adapted the tenor of his writings to the
disciple of Linne and the common reader, a!I with- him to
very singular praise. With regard to the typography and en-
gravings of this work, we are happy in iniorming our readers
that they are executed in a manner which is suitable to its so-
ld merits."
