⁂ The critiques which have appeared upon this amusing little work have

been uniformly favourable. The _Athenæum_ pronounces it a perfect

model of successful antiquarian exposition, readable from the first

line to the last. The _Art Journal_ devotes a considerable space to

the little work, and congratulates the author upon his success. The

_Leader_ contributes two full columns of eulogy. The _Builder_ directs

its readers to purchase it. The _Critic_ says, in a long article,

that it thoroughly explains who these old Giants were, the position

they occupied in popular mythology, the origin of their names, and a

score of other matters, all of much interest in throwing a light upon

fabulous portions of our history.
