Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Reformation in Europe in the Time of Calvin, Vol. 7
Whole year has elapsed since the publication of the Sixth volume of the History of the Re formation. But this delay is owing to the fact that the editor has been unable to devote to this under taking more than the scanty leisure hours of an active ministry; and not, as some have supposed, to the necessity of compiling the History from notes more or less imperfect left by the author. The following narrative, like that which has preceded it, is wholly written by M. Merle d'aubigné himself. The editor repeats the statement made on the publication Of the last volume - that his task has consisted solely in verifying the numerous quotations occurring in the text or as foot-notes, and in curtail ing, in two or three places, some general re?exions which interfered with the rapid ?ow Of the narrative, and which the author would certainly have eithei suppressed or condensed if it had been permitted him to put the finishing touches to his work. We can only express our gratitude to the public for the reception given to the posthumous volume which we have already presented to them. Criticism.
