"The story is full of varied interest.... Readers who know how to pick and choose will find plenty to entertain them, and not a little which is well worth reading."—_The Times._
"Mr. Hare gives an idyllic picture of the simple, refined, dignified life at Lime.... The volumes are an inexhaustible storehouse of anecdote."—_Daily News._
"The reader rarely comes across a passage which does not afford amusement or pleasant entertainment."—_The Scotsman._
"One may safely predict that this will be the most popular book of the season.... We have not space to point out a twentieth part of the passages that might be described as having a special interest. Moreover, though the book is, among other things, a repertory of curious occurrences and amusing anecdotes, it is much more remarkable as a book of sentiment and character, and a story of real life told with remarkable fulness."—_The Guardian._
"A book which will greatly amuse the reader."—_The Spectator._
"Much of what the author has to tell is worthy the telling, and is told with considerable ease and grace, and with a power to interest out of the common. He introduces us to the best of good company, and tells many excellently witty stories.... Whenever he is describing foreign life he is at his best; and nothing can exceed the beautiful pathos of the episodes in which his mother appears. Indeed, he has the gift of tenderness for all good women and brave men."—_Daily Telegraph._
"This autobiography could not fail to be exceptionally interesting. There may be readers who will protest that the more minute details of daily life might have been abridged with advantage, but the aim of the book makes this elaborate treatment of the subject indispensable. The conscientious record of a mental development amid curious surroundings, would make these volumes valuable if not a single name of note were mentioned.... Even more interesting than the stories of people and things that are still remembered are the glimpses of a past which is quickly fading out of recollection."—_The Standard._
