'Among the best of the various series of school-books which are just now being published may be mentioned the Elementary Classics.' The notes are precisely the sort of notes which are required, which assist a boy without making him lazy.”—Westminster Review.

The notes are scholarly, and supply the sort of information required by Elementary Students."Educational Times.
