"The interesting discoveries at Wroxeter must
often cause a. wish to be acquainted wiili some
book which will enable a visitor to understand
what he sees there. The one before us appears
eminently calculated to meet such a. want, and, in
fact, to furnish all that can be required for under-
standing any assemblage of English antiquities,
or any excavations of British tumulus or Roman
city. Altogether the book is the most interest-
ing one of its class We have ever met with, and
no one who purposes a visit to any place where
antiquities are to be found should fail to nmke
himself acquainted with it. It is agreeably
written, free from everything like pedantry, and
well cared for in the smaller but important parti-
culars of lists, tables, and indices."- Spectator.

" Mr. Wright has done all that an antiquary can
do to make us feel at home among embryo Saxon
society. On the arrangements of an early Saxon
house the description of Mr. Wright is elaborate
and explicit. When Mr. Wright comes to the
Noimans we End his information is more ample,
and, as he can boast that his work is not a compi-
lation from writers who have written on the
subject before, he has several new facts to com-
municate or to place in u. new light. The usages
of domestic life are copiously illustrated by the
urawings of Mr. Fairholt from ancient manuscript
illustrations. Mr. Wright's book contains avast
store of information, and we can recommend it as
readable and amusing."-Times.
" A work like Mr. W'l'ighl'S ' History of Domestic
Mmmers and Sentiments in England during the
Middle Ages 'furnishes u. store of delightful renti-
ing. Aided by his laborious, but gracefully em-
ployed learning, and assisted by the hundreds of
curious illustmtiolis, copied from authentic sources
by Mr. Fai1'holt's pencil, we can make alnorning call
upon the Anglo-Saxons. We love to trace the
past through the pages of :1 delightful work like
this, which will commend itself to all 1'ea.(1eru."-
