“ ‘ Mr. Burke's Peerage and Baronetage’ is the most complete, the moat convenient,and the cheapest work of the kind ever offered to the public.”— Sun.
“ The New Edition of ‘ Mr. Burke’s Peerage and Baronetage for 1845,’ just pub-lished, is certainly the most perfect and comprehensive Encyclopaedia of personal andnational history ever given to the public; combining surprising accuracy and importantinformation with the greatest brevity and clearness, and exhibiting, in a condensed andlucid form, the lives and achievements of the many eminent men who have shed lustreon the roll of our nobility, from the steel-clad barons of Crescy and Agincourt , to theheroes of Blenheim and Waterloo. This new edition has evidently undergone the mostsearching revision, several of the lineages have been rewritten—all remodelled and im-proved—and the introduction of much interesting matter, referential to the baronetsand the collateral branches, renders the impression far more valuable than any of theformer ones. Indeed, there is not a name connected with peer or baronet, that is notdisplayed in its pages, aud yet, by the judicious plan that has been adopted, the bulk ofthe volume is not increased.”— Globe.
