NOTICES OF THE PRESS "Descriptions of such Shrines come home with deep
interest to all hearts--all English hearts--particularly when they are
done with the earnestness which distinguishes Mrs. Hall's writings. That
lady's earnestness and enthusiasm are of the right sort--felt for
freedom of thought and action, for taste, and for genius winging its
flight in a noble direction. They are displayed, oftentimes most
naturally, throughout the attractive pages of this volume."--_Observer._
"Mrs. Hall's talents are too well known to require our commendation of
her 'Pilgrimages,' which are every way worthy of the beautiful woodcuts
that illustrate almost every page, and this is very high praise
indeed."--_Standard._
"The illustrations are very effective; and the whole work externally and
internally, is worthy of the patronage of all who love to be instructed
as well as amazed.
