Scope and content
The Athenaeum - JCH was sorry he missed WW in London. They are going to spend the latter half of next month in Westmoreland. 'One cannot wish to live, in men's minds or otherwise, in nobler company than that of Arnold [Thomas Arnold]. Much as I admired and valued him, his life teaches me that I had a very inadequate notion of his extraordinary purity and holy energy. It is a book that will do good to men's hearts for generations; and ought to be in the hand & heart of everyone who engages in the sacred work of teaching'.
