"Father Morris has done his best, in an able and careful manner, towards illustrating the minutiae of Mary's captivity under the guardianship of Sir Amias Poulet. He has performed his work in a way that the most practised editor of old documents need not be ashamed of."-Athenæum, June 13, 1874.

"In the volume before us are published for the first time a number of letters of Sir Amias, which were preserved by his descendants, and are now deposited in the Bodleian Library. Many of these are highly interesting, and Mr Morris has done good service to the cause of historical truth in placing them before the public. Mr. Morris has both ably and honestly performed his duty as editor of these interesting letters. He is thoroughly acquainted with the history of the period."-Mr. Hosack, in the Academy, July 4, 1874.

"These interesting letters, many of which have been hitherto unknown, throw much light on that part of the captivity of Mary Stuart which was passed under the rigorous keeping of Sir Amias Poulet. Mr. Morris deserves the thanks of those students of history who prefer plain facts to picturesque fiction for publishing these very important letters. In editing them he has done his work with great exactness and impartiality."-Saturday Review, September 19, 1874. Burns & Oates, 17 and 18, Portman-street; and 63, Paternoster row.
