Burns & Oates’
Monsignor Gradwell in this work has treated his subject from a novel point of view. In the first place, he has chosen a portion only of the life of St. Patrick, and that, the one which has for the most part been treated with scant notice, namely, the years that preceded his second arrival in Ireland. Again, he has attempted to exhibit him in the light in which he was seen by his contemporaries, and has surrounded him with the actual circumstances of time and place. The style is eminently readable, the descriptions are vivid, and the narrative of events is clear and accurate.

“It would be quite superfluous at this hour of the day to recommend Mr. Allies’ writings to English Catholics. Those of our readers who remember the article on his writings in the Katholik, know that he is esteemed in Germany as one of our foremost writers.”

“Miss Allies’ ‘Leaves’ are delightful reading; the English is remarkably pure and graceful; page after page reads as if it were original. No commentator, Catholic or Protestant, has ever surpassed St. John Chrysostom in the knowledge of Holy Scripture, and his learning was of a kind which is of service now as it was at the time when the inhabitants of a great city hung on his words.”

“The Life of Blessed John Fisher could hardly fail to be interesting and instructive. Sketched by Father Bridgett’s practised pen, the portrait of this holy martyr is no less vividly displayed in the printed pages of the book than in the wonderful picture of Holbein, which forms the frontispiece.”

“Father Bridgett has followed up his valuable Life of Bishop Fisher with a still more valuable Life of Thomas More. It is, as the title declares, a study not only of the life, but also of the writings of Sir Thomas. Father Bridgett has considered him from every point of view, and the result is, it seems to us, a more complete and finished portrait of the man, mentally and physically, than has been hitherto presented.”

“These are good sermons.... The great merit of which is that they might be read verbatim to any congregation, and they would be understood and appreciated by the uneducated almost as fully as by the cultured. They have been carefully put together; their language is simple and their matter is solid.”

“Told in manly, vigorous English, and filled with bits of descriptions of sea-life that are quite as good as anything Dana ever wrote, and characterized by a certain quaint humour that has frequently reminded us of the writings of Charles Waterton, the naturalist; this autobiography is certainly the most entertaining book that has been added to Catholic literature for many a long year.”
