"In these volumes Mr. Phillips has contributed what may be called a new chapter to the history of our great Civil War. Having fearlessly entered the boundless waste of the King's Pamphlets in the British Museum and of the State Papers at the Record Office,' he has given us in his first volume a sketch of the part which Wales and the Marches played in that great struggle, and in his second the proofs on which his sketch is based, in the shape of extracts from those pamphlets and records. It will suffice to give some notion of the toil which such a work exacts when we add that in the course of his inquiries Mr. Phillips has carefully overhauled ' every pamphlet and newspaper of the period, amounting to many thousands, as well as all the memoirs and collections bearing on the period, together with the vast collection of documents at the Record Office, which are still unindexed. Let us now consider the result of the labours of our author, as represented in these volumes."

This it proceeds to do in a review occupying two columns and a half, and
concludes:-"
:-"We have here reached the end of the period treated of by
Mr. Phillips, and we are bound to say that out of his abundant materials he
has made a very valuable book, which may be read with profit not only by
the inhabitants of the Principality but by every one who is desirous of
perusing this new chapter in the history of the Great Civil War, and of
observing how large a portion of the struggle occurred in Wales or on its
Marches."-The Times, Nov. 28, 1874.

This work is highly useful in elucidating the History of the Principality, and will be a book of reference on the subject. The author draws his information from sources of the best authority, many of them not lying within the reach of the ordinary reader; and, while he has condensed his information in a clear forcible manner, he preserves, at the same time. great freedom and elegance of diction.
