A HISTORY OF ENGLISH PROSE FICTION from
Sir Thomas Mallory TO George Eliot by BAYARD
TUcKERMAN. l2mo. Pr $751; e. 7. Putnam's sons.
Mr. Tuckerm0ns plan in this book is to trace the
development of the modern novel in connection
with the changes in popular manners and morals.
The principle is obviously sound one. The author
has applied 1t with varying ability,
but IN some chapters at least no.
tably those of the middle period,
with no slight success. He has made no
pretence of profound or original criticism his
useful purpose has rather been to describe the char
acteristics of successive of fiction and to pre-
sent an outline of famous or typical works which
are more talked about than read. In the perform
ance of this task he shows extensive reading and
generally correct taste He is least satisfactory in
dealing with the novelists of the present genera
ton but that was to be expected the literature
of fiction has become too extensive in our time to
be treated in a chapter
