General Gordon. By Colonel Sir William Butler.

The AthenÆum says:—'As a brief memorial of a career that embraced many momentous spheres of action, that included some of the principal military and colonial crises of the past fifty years, and that ended in a halo of transcendent self-immolation, Sir William Butler's volume is the best we possess.'

The St. James's Gazette says:—'Sir William Butler tells the story of Gordon's life as a brother-officer should. The interest never flags, and the narrative is imbued with a deep feeling of reverence.'

The Nonconformist says:—'It is the best biography of Gordon that has yet appeared.'

The Spectator says:—'This is beyond all question the best of the narratives of the career of General Gordon that has yet been published.'
