"They are far above any others that have appeared both in form and
substance. The editor of the present series has rightly seen that
reading books must aim chiefly at giving to the pupils the power of
accurate, and, if possible, apt and skilful expression; at cultivating in
them a good literary taste, and at arousing a desire of further reading.'
This is done by taking care to select the extracts from true English classics,
going up in Standard VI. course to Chaucer, Hooker, and Bacon, as well
as Wordsworth, Macaulay, and Froude. This is quite on the right

track, and indicates justly the ideal which we ought to set before us.”—
GUARDIAN.
