lADY JANE GREY.
A By the Author of " Royston Gower," " Fair Rosa-
mond," &c.
" Mr. Miller already occupies a high rank among the
writers of Historical Romance. In the present performance
we have on the one hand, Edward IV., Lady Jane Grey,
Northumberland, Suffolk and his Duchess, Guildford, Cecil,
and others, painted with singular fidelity ; and, on the other,
a Being supposed to be possessed of supernatural powers;
Wardour, a lover of the hapless Lady Jane Grey ; and Amy,
her faithful friend ; involved, and producing extraordinary
effeets in the plot which it has pleased the writer to invent to
give a deep dramatic interest to his story, and enable him to
introduce his inferior and general portraits in the costume and
manners of their age. This Work does honour to its Author.
and places him in a front rank among the most eminent
cultivators of this species of literature."—Literary Gazette.
Henry Celburn, Publisher, 13, Great Marlborough-street.
To be had at the Libraries.
