A Tale. By OLIVER GOLDSMITH.
"We believe that it was old Mr. Newbery, the predecessor, in
St. Paul's Church-yard, of Messrs. Grant and Griffith, who
first published this story. Mr. Absolon's graphic sketches add
greatly to the interest of the volume: altogether, it is as
pretty an edition of the 'Vicar' as we have seen. Mrs.
Primrose herself would consider it 'well dressed.'"--_Art
Journal_.
"This tale has long been a favourite subject with our artists;
but we have never seen any designs more pleasing or more
truthful than these."--_Gentleman's Magazine_.
"A delightful edition of one of the most delightful of works:
the fine old type and thick paper make this volume attractive
to any lover of books."--_Edinburgh Guardian_.
"This edition will find favour in the eyes of all those who
admire this master-piece of Goldsmith's easy and graceful
pen."--_Notes and Queries_.
