! THE ROVING ENGLISHMAN'S NEW WORK . Price 5 s ., cloth lettered , " [ EMBASSIES AND FOREIGN GOUKTSi JL _ J a History op Difi . oma . ct . By the ROVINGr ENGLISHMAN . "The Roving Englishman is a satirical chronicler . His style is not less lively than severe , not subtle enough for irony , but caustic , free , and full of earnest meaning . The I salt of the book is to be found in the keen allusions which : cluster around every anecdote , the light struck from ancient and modenvinstances to illustrate the events of our own times , and the ridicule bestowed on mediaeval feelings and ; manners . Beyond this , the volume is an admirable manual ,, skilfully adapted to the purpose of diffusing a general koowledge of history and the working of diplomacy . "— The Alheneeum , Sept . 22 , 1855 . London : George Routledge and Co ., Farringdon-- street ; and all Booksellers and Railway Stations .
