Notes and Queries, Number 05, December 1, 1849

"Not a page can be opened where the eye does not light upon some antique gem. Mythology, history, art, manners, topography, have all their fitting representatives. It is the highest praise to say, that the designs throughout add to the pleasure with which Horace is read. Many of them carry us back to the very portraitures from which the old poets drew their inspirations."–Classical Museum.

For the convenience of Purchasers, the Work is arranged so as to be bound in Two Volumes, for which proper Titles are given.

"There is no branch of literature in which classed catalogues are of so much importance as in biblical, and we therefore feel bound to notice a very excellent volume lately issued by Mr. Stewart under the title of 'A Catalogue of Bibles and Biblical Literature.' It is excellently well arranged, and will afford important facilities to those in search of books in particular departments… The preparation of such catalogues is a work of expense and labour, but must be well repaid (?) by the facilities afforded to purchasers."–Kitte's Journal of Sacred Literature.

"We have much pleasure in recommending to our readers' attention this valuable and well arranged catalogue. Mr. Stewart's collection of works, in all the branches of a theological library, ranks high, both for number and selectness, among the very best in the country."–Christian Observer.
