François-Marie Arouet, who at the age of 24 assumed the name of Voltaire, was born at Paris, 1694, and died 1778; he was the author of a great number of works-plays, satires, poems, essays, criticisms, philosophical treatises, etc.; his satirical powers as a writer and his sceptical philosophy have made him up to the present day the subject of many discussions, and of many essays in which he has in turn been earnestly condemned or enthusiastically admired. Mr. Parton, Who is well known through his biographies of Jackson, Franklin, Jefferson, Burr and others, has endeavoured to get at a true estimate of the man, uninfluenced by prejudices of any kind; he has spent years in study and research and has sifted an immense amount of information relating to him; his work has not only the merit of being impartial, but is the first complete history of Voltaire given in English; the style in which the book is written will in itself attract, as it is full of the most interesting details. It also contains two most valuable bibliographical features-1, a list of books relating to Voltaire, and 2, a list of his own works-the titles in both being translated into English.
