Restoration—and the volumes, now under notice, detail',
With rninateoess and fidelity, every great political
transaction which occurred in the later years of Charles
the Second's reign, and during the short goyernment of
hi:successor. Of the interesting character of that period
—a describedi by )sir. Fox as " one of the most
sinjdlar and important of our history"—we are now
abundantly informed, since the Lives of the- Norths de-
ielope the intrigues of Jate4s and his partisans, and.
glierus a complete and candid exposition of the objects,
itith which James ascended the throne. These Lives
were originally published in the years 1740 and 1742,
in two volumes, in quarto. Since that period, the
of the Lord keeper Guilford has been republished in
&tyro ; -but the Livee of Sir Dudley. North and Dr.
John North, have never been reprinted. The three
pieces of biography (which, in fact, form only one work)
are spit:presented-to the public in the maim= shape,
in which, doubtless, it was the intention of the' Anthers'
tit-at they should appear.
