Flame Bearers of Welsh History. By Owen Rhoscomyl. (Welsh Educational

Publishing Company. is. 6d. net.)—Here we have notices of a number of British heroes, among them Caradoc (Caractacus), Arthur, St. David, Cadwallon, Griffith, Llewellyn, and Glendower. (We must be excused for giving the names in the commonly known form.) The writer is an enthusiastic patriot, and does his countrymen justice. We may remark that in the illustration representing Caradoe before Claudius, it would have been snore correct to represent Agrippina as sitting on another throne. Tacitus expressly says that this was done, and that it excited much comment.
