TAPPAN, E.M.
In the Days of Alfred the Great.
Lothrop. 1.00
As stated in the preface, this narrative of the life of the famous
king is the result of a thoughtful study of his character and an
earnest effort to be as accurate as the scantiness of material and the
thousand years' interval would permit.
I have sought to live my life worthily.
ALFRED THE GREAT.
TAPPAN, E.M.
In the Days of Queen Elizabeth.
Lothrop. 1.00
Of all the sovereigns that have worn the crown of England, Queen
Elizabeth is the most puzzling, the most fascinating, the most
blindly praised, and the most unjustly blamed.... At a distance
of three hundred years it is not easy to balance these claims to
censure and to admiration, but at least no one should forget that
the little white hand of which she was so vain guided the ship of
state with most consummate skill in its perilous passage through
the troubled waters of the latter half of the sixteenth
century.
