"The best genealogical and heraldic dictionary of the Peerage and
Baronetage."--_Globe._
"For the amazing quantity of personal and family history, admirable
arrangements of details, and accuracy of information, this genealogical
and heraldic dictionary is without a rival. It is now the standard and
acknowledged book of reference upon all questions touching
pedigree."--_Morning Post._
"Nowhere else is there to be found so full an account of the families of
men newly admitted in the Peerage or the Baronetage. * * * * The
minutest change to the date of Publication will be found recorded in
this Volume, which is in fact a Peerage and Baronetage, not only beyond
comparison with any other book of the same class extent, but while it
remains as it now is, perfect of its kind above all risk from any future
competition."--_Examiner._
"The book combines, in one volume, and at one view, what no other work
of the kind has ever done, the complete past genealogy, and now living
condition, of the family of each Peer and Baronet of Great Britain and
Ireland. * * * Burke's Peerage and Baronetage may be fairly looked on us
the golden book of the hereditary rank and aristocracy of the British
Empire."--_Morning Post._
"Burke's Peerage and Baronetage is now quite a national
annual."--_Illus. London News._
