The tenth volume of the Julian Shelley has just been

published by Messrs. Ernest Benn (13 3s.). We commented at some length on this work when the first volume appeared four years ago. Since then the editors have been working at their enviable task, putting out from time to dine another of these lovely books. The notes by Mr. Roger Ingpen represent a life-work of enthusiastic and patient research. - They constitute a " life " of the " Suntreader " and a history of his times. Mr. Ingpen is to be congratulated on the completion of this monumental achievement. It must be a proud moment for him. Fortunate, too, are the 750 people here and in America who will own this edition, for it is not likely to be superseded.
