WILMOT-BUXTON i F.R.Hist.S: 6/A novel dealing with the life of Queen Elizabeth, as seen from the point of view of one of her maids of honor, in which almost every character is historical, and most of the sayings attributed to the dramatis pcrsoncc are derived from contemporary records, is a fictional experiment of an entirely new kind. The phrase “historical novel” too often means nothing more than that the book to which the title is applied deals with the more or less remote past. It is “historical” only because it is not professedly contemporary. Miss Wilmot-Buxton thinks that actual historical persons and events can be presented in a novel which-' will be no whit less interesting than a book of the hour dealing with entirely imaginary characters. The reader of this book will agree that she has thoroughly proved her point. THE HOUSEHOLD OF GOD SERIES. By Father C. 0. Martinbale, S.J. Upon God’s Holy Hills. I. The Guides: SS.
