By Robert Eyres Landor, M.A., author of "The Fawn of Sertorious," "The Impious Feast," Tragedies, etc. 2 vols. post 8vo. 188. cloth.

"The peculiar source of interest in The Fountain of Arethusa is the exhibition of modern society from the mere philosophical or rational point of view; but there is a good deal more in the work, which for some readers will possess greater attraction. The introductory part contains some nice delineation of character and pleasant description in England and Germany, marked with a quiet humour. The journey to the Elysian fields is full of strange fantastic incidents and scenes, powerful though somewhat theatrical. There are learned, fanciful, and gorgeous descriptions of new Rome and its region; but the second source of peculiar interest is the graphic revival of ancient stories, or the sketches of ancient great men, which will remind the reader of the author's previous work-The Fawn of Sertorius." Spectator.
