A long column surveys recent books and authors in English and French criticism. It discusses Roosevelt and Kipling translations, Charles Marriott's Love With Honour, The Column, and the fate of early works, noting differing receptions in England and America and urging a fresh literary effort from Marriott.
The piece surveys recent book publishing, praising travel and biography volumes, reprints of standard works, and quality “git books” with strong materials and presentation. It notes fewer sensational works, legitimate persuasion over hype, and hints at authors who published earlier in life, including a provocative work attributed to Parker under a pseudonym.
A London press review notes a disciplined tone in critiques of De Wet while skewering Kruger's memoirs. De Wet is treated with respect as historian and author, whereas Kruger's authorship is challenged in Blackwood's with accusations based on internal evidence.
The Saturday Review of Books examines Lowell’s Anti Slavery Papers now collected in two volumes. It notes their moral earnestness and wit, contrasts their political prose with his later works, and highlights the papers’ context in the Polk era Mexican War and 1848 revolutions. The review credits the introduction and Scudder’s Life of Lowell for framing the impact on abolition and literary development.
