ALFRED THE GREAT. A Poem. By G. L. NEWNHAM COLLINGWOOD, Esq., Editor of
the '_Life and Correspondence of Admiral Lord Collingwood._'
"At any other time than the present, when the tide of literary
taste is running against poetry of the severely heroic character,
the appearance of such a work as 'Alfred the Great' would have
excited a general interest, and ensured the author a high place
among the writers of his country. * * * We may add that the
interest of the poem never flags, and has the additional merit of
keeping pace with the progress of the story from its commencement
to its conclusion."--_New Monthly Mag., August 1._
