Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Essays I find, a little to my surprise, that a fourth edition of this first series of essays is needed, while the second series still remains in the second edition and the third remains in the first. I should have thought that the last, containing writings at once more mature and on the whole on fresher subjects, would have been the favourite of the three. But I must take facts as I find them.
