"The transactions of their own ancestors must be allowed to be more laudable objects of interest to Englishmen, than those of any foreign nation: yet before the translation of his Chronicle by Johnes, Froissart, that most interesting recorder of the proudest portion of our annals, was known hardly to any but a few fortunate possessors of a Pynson's or Myddleton's Lord Berners. The resurrection of Hall and Holinshed from the entombment of a public library, is an event of yet later occurrence; and even now, while every day beams with new impressions of Hume and Smollett, and Henry, and Andrews, nobody seems to care how long the obscurity of a dead language shall continue to cover the forms of our old monkish chroniclers,those authentic and amusing relators of passing occurrences, who carry the reader back with them by an irresistible spell to the days in which they lived, and among the scenes and persons which they describe."

"In every point of view the present work is entitled to our warmest commendations. The figures of the animals are spirited and correct; and the general effect beautifully picturesque ; but what is of still greater importance. the pen of the writer is no less excellent than the pencil of the designer and the tool of the engraver. The descriptions are full, perspicuous, and elegant. They are, in a great degree, the result of the author's personal study, and therefore, generally expressed in his own language."
