THE ROVING ENGLISHMAN'S HEW WORK . Price 5 s ., cloth lettered , "EMBASSIES AND FOREIGN GOUKTSi J ~^ a History op Dipi-omact . By the BOVINGr ENGLISHMAN . "The Roving Englishman is a satirical chronicler . His style is not less lively than severe , not subtle enough for irony , but caustic , free , and full of earnest meaning .
