comprising upwards of 500 objects, cloth, 15_s._
"One of the first wants of an incipient antiquary is the facility
of comparison, and here it is furnished him at one glance. The
plates, indeed, form the most valuable part of the book, both by
their number and the judicious selection of types and examples
which they contain. It is a book which we can, on this account,
safely and warmly recommend to all who are interested in the
antiquities of their native land."--_Literary Gazette._
"A book of such utility--so concise, so clear, so well condensed
from such varied and voluminous sources--cannot fail to be
generally acceptable."--_Art Union._
