HIS BIOGRAPHY AND WORKS IN A UNI
FORM EDITION.

TENNYsON. In Ten Volumes. Illustrated.
octave. The Macmillan Company.
The admirable practice of bringing together IN
one set of volumes the biography and the WORKS
Of a great poet is illustrated with pecuial
felicity in this edition Of Tennyson. Inc "or4u
is more and more coming to employ the melhou
which was productive of such brilliant resu's
in the hands of sainte- Beuve; the method Of
studying the works in the light OF the au'"oi .
ufa and environments Halam Tennyson's
memoir of his father met with especial appIecIa-
t,on IN its appearance toward the close Of 1897
because 1t included various important posi-
bumous documents; but as we said at the time
It is even more to be valued for It's VIVA por-
tra,ture of a noble man Of genius, for its In
Vulnerable anecdotes, for the sayings and writ
ings which it quotes from half the celebrities
OF the Victorian era. The mode Of aloofness' OF
absorption in his high erected thoughts, so com
mon in Tennyson. was not Incompatible with a
really intimate intercourse with many Of his
contemporaries To read his biography with It's
riches Of correspondence and reported talk is to
realize the atmosphere in which his masterpieces
were created: it is TO feel with new vividness
the force Of the social life which. in spite Of all
bis habits Of seclusion. contributed to the de-
friendship for Her Majesty lends an added In
terest to those poems which testify to the feel
ing he had for her Certainly the biography Is
a good place in which to find that version Of
ITO the Queen" which was unpublished until
the present Lord Tennyson gave the biographi-
cal volumes TO the world 1t is not inapposite
to reproduce IT here:
The nobest men methinks are bred
OF ours, the SaXo-Norman race;
And in the world the noblest place,
Madam is yours, our Queen and Head
Your name is borne on every wind.
Your flag thro Austral ice is borne,
And glirnmers to the Northern morn
And floats in either golden lnd

For. though the faults be thick as dust
In vacant chambers. ! can trust
Your woman's nature, kind and true.
In the present edition the memoir occupies
the first four volumes, the poems hlling the
other six The last Of the biographical volumes
and the last volume Of the poems contain COM
nIete indexes. As for the form Of the edition, it
seems to us ideal and really preferable to any
that might have been produced with all those
luxuries Of vellum and spacious margins which
are supposed to be indispensable TO the edition
de luxe" This is a special limited edition, but
II has been made for use. The size is a con-
venient octave. The paper Is strong and Of a
delicate surface. The type is clear and open.
The interesting portraits which serve as Fronts
pieces are reproduced in photogravure, and scat
tered through the text there are other opposite
and valuable illustrations. The dark green silk

gold. and floral medallion. also in gold is

QUEEN ELIZABETH.
A POPULAR EDITION OF BISHOP CREIGH-
TONS MONOGRAPH.

QUEEN EdzAB BE BY Mapd Tell Grebghton
London. With Portrait octave, PIP. vi, BOZ.
Longmans. Green Co.
The Bishop Of London's monograph on Queen
Elizabeth originally published in 1896, in
magnihcently printed and illustrated edition
limited TO a comparatively small number of
copies. We are glad TO record the publication
Of the work in a form readily accessible TO
every student 1t is q very brief narrative. but
the author is skful in condensation and
know Of no more useful biography Of the great
queen It portrays her at full length, and
salient personages and events identified with
her reign are sketched with art that leaves
them and Elizabeth in the right perspective.
An ecclesiastical historian naturally pauses with
especial interest and care on everything that
relates 10 the Queens conduct. The Bishop is
candid. but he arrives by thoroughly legiti-
mate process at a conclusion which does not rob
Elizabeth OF the essentially admirable traits
Embedded in her ambiguous character. The
truth is that she is only ambiguous when tested
by an exclusively modern rule Of conduct. she
and the conditions of her time are, as the au-
thor remarks. perplexing but he assists us TO
arrive at Just estimate Of both by considering
them always with a perfect realization OF all
that was involved in that strange and fruitful
epoch The sympathetic and persuasive drift
of the volume is we'll illustrated by the final
paragraphs which run as follows:
Elizabeth's imperishable claim to greatness
lies in her instructive sympathy with her people
She felt rather than understood the possibili-
ties which lay before England and she set her
self the task OF slowly exhibiting, and impress
ing them on the national mind. She raised Eng
lishmen 10 a perception of Englands destiny
and for this purpose fixed England's attention
upon itself. She caught at every advantage
which was afforded by the divided condition OF
Europe 10 assert England's Importance. France
and Spain alike had deep causes OF hostility
she played off one against the other so that
| both were anxious for the friendship Of a State
which they each hoped some day TO annex.
] England gained courage from this sight, and
