By J.J.A. Worsaae, M.R.S.A., of Copenhagen. Translated and applied to
the Illustration of similar Remains in England, by William J. Thoms,
Esq., F.S.A., Secretary of the Camden Society. Illustrated with
numerous Woodcuts. 8vo. 10s. 6d.
"This is the best antiquarian handbook we have ever met
with--so clear is its arrangement, and so well and so plainly
is each subject illustrated by well-executed engravings,
that confusion for the future is impossible upon a variety of
points on which the most grievous mistakes have hitherto been
made by anxious and zealous antiquarians. * * * It is the
joint production of two men who have already distinguished
themselves as authors and antiquarians. It is a book of which
it may be said, that in every sentence is to be found an
interesting fact, and that every page teems with instructions,
and may be regarded as a sure guide to all antiquarians in
their future archæological inquiries."--_Morning Herald_.
