The Revival of Learning-(III.) Wolsey(IV.) Thomas Cromwell. The seven chapters in which the Reformation is treated have for their respective subjects (I.) The Protestant Revolution(II.) The Catholic Reaction-(III.) The England of Elizabeth—(IV.) England and Mary Stuart-(V.) England and the Papacy-(VI.) England and Spain, and (VII.) The England of Shakspere. The Examiner, in reviewing the first volume, says, "Mr. Green has done a work which probably no one but himself could have done. He has read and assimilated the results of all the labours of students during the last half century in the field of English history, and has given them a fresh meaning by his own independent study. He has fused together by the force of sympathetic imagination all that he has so collected, and has given us a vivid and forcible sketch of the march of English history. His book, both in its aims and its acccomplishment, rises far beyond any of a similar kind, and it will give the colouring to the popular view of English history for some time to come." 13929 GREY Correspondence, Reform Act, 1832 Correspondence of 1867 13930 GULIELMI NEUBRIGENSIS Historia sive Chronica Rerum Anglicarum, cum notis T.
