CAMPBELL, John, first Baron Campbell] [1779-1861].
The Lives Of The Lord Chancellors And Keepers Of The Great Seal Of England, From The Earliest Times, Till The Reign Of King George IV.
London: John Murray, 1845-69..
8 Volumes. 8vo. with half-titles. extra-illustrated with 149 engraved & lithographed plates (1 double-page, almost all portraits). full tree calf by Zaehnsdorf, gilt-tooled spines, gilt inside dentelles (bit rubbed, some foxing to plates). First Edition. "The merits of [Campbell's] 'Lives' are very considerable. They are eminently readable. The style is lively, though rough, careless and incorrect; every incident is presented effectively; they are full of good stories, and they contain a great deal of information about the history of law and lawyers which is not easily to be found elsewhere. The later volumes.have the freshness and interest of personal memoirs. For all these qualities Campbell has received due and sufficient recognition. Nor has time worn away the merits of his books; they still find many readers, and there is little probability that they will be displaced by anything more entertaining written on the same subject. None the less are they among the most censurable publications in our literature." (DNB) Sweet & Maxwell II p. 34. cfMarke p. 151.
