Readers will find in this selection a prophetic quality, and many passages possess - as well as the humanity and beauty always to be found in this author's work - the particular interest of the years in which they were written; for Sir Osbert has a mind strangely tinged with politics and satire. His thoughts bear on the problems of the day, and present many facets of thought and expression which should concern all people of the time; and yet, in spite of he modernity, he excels at the portraits of people now dead, and his poetic sketches - in the part of the book called England Reclaimed - are certainly without rival in their own field.
