Critical and Historical Essays, Volume III (of 3) by Macaulay

Originally appearing in the Edinburgh Review between 1825 and 1844, these essays cover figures from Milton to Addison, offering sweeping historical and literary portraits. Praised for their brilliant, transparent style and ability to spark reader interest, the essays also drew criticism for their Whig prejudices and occasional inaccuracy.
