A Fountain Sealed and Other Literary Critiques
The review praises Anne Douglas Sedgwick's A Fountain Sealed as a vivid psychological study of Imogen Upton, noting sharp, truthful character portrayal and restrained morbidity. It discusses Howells Between the Dark and the Rainbow’s tales as uneven and occasionally poignant, Stevenson’s That Affair at Elizabeth as a readable detective work, Coppings Gotty and the Guv'nor as amiable but minor, Weyman Laid Up in Lavender as a weaker collection, and warns Weyman’s earlier twelve stories fall short of his best work.

Modern England in Victoria's Reign Political History Review
A critical review notes the book by Sidney Low and Lloyd C. Sanders presents a Conservative-leaning yet generally fair account of Queen Victoria's 1837-1901 era. It highlights selective coverage of reform, unions, municipal progress, and the omission of broader social history and the cooperative movement.

John Bright and the Ballads at the Royal Historical Society
Professor Firth urges the old English ballad as a serious historical source with support from editors like Furnivall and Gairdner. Sir H Haworth recounts the ballad’s political vitality, noting Bright’s aversion to Derby stemmed from partisan sixteenth century ballads featuring the Stanleys.
