SOME EARLY PRESS OPINIONS.
A most interesting book. It certainly appears to scratch out the ‘‘ pre” from the so-called “‘prehistoric”’ period in which the origin of our islandancestors was deemed ‘‘lost.”—Daily Mail.
Offers good reading—subject treated with insight and given attractive form. —Oxford Chronicle.
Never before has the Phoenician theory of the Britons been presented so authoritatively and supported by such an imposing array of evidence.Northern Whig.
One is almost constrained to believe the new theory. It provokes thought, and it ought to stimulate research into regions not sufficiently explored. We may be sure that many theories formulated and accepted in the past, even by careful and learned historians, will have to be abandoned.Inqutrer. Is nothing short of areal romance—a book you have to tear yourself away from. Profusely and well illustrated—a fascinating book.—Birmingham Gazette.
A book of remarkable and unusual interest, written in a very interesting manner. The facts and explanations are very striking and fill over 400 pages, interspersed with drawings of the monuments, coins, stone relics, ancient inscriptions, &c.—Newcastle Chronicle.
Fascinating deductions of stimulating interest. The claim is all the more interesting because it approaches the subject from a new angle.— Western Morning News.
Proofs as convincing as they are laboriously worked out.—Daily Graphic.
The glory of descent from pure British stock has been greatly enhanced by an archzological feat of the first rank.—New York Evening Post.
Profoundly interesting volume. It cannot be put aside as a collection of hurried conclusions of a careless student. Lavishly illustrated. Pages of deep interest relating to the stone-circles of Stonehenge and Keswick, discovering engraved marks previously overlooked by other observers. —Daily Province, Vancouver.
A stupendous thing. A book of Truth stranger than Fiction—written in a clear and straightforward style that appeals to the average intelligent reader who has an interest in progress and the manner of that progress of his race.—Globe, St, John, N.B.
The book is packed with interesting facts from the latest authorities, and the illustrations happily chosen. Indices are all that could be desired.Professor Sayce.
