"Bro. Markham Tweddell's Bards and Authors of Cleveland and South Durham is approaching completion, nine out of the twelve parts having been published. The author must have possessed some rare collections to have raked up so much lore anent the local bards and authors of his locality, of whom he doubtless, is no mean example. The work is admirably got uppaper, printing, wood and steel-plate engravings all being excel lent. Although to a great extent the interest in the work may be said to be local, still the general reader cannot fail to be gratified by the interesting sketches given, each of which are profusely illustrated with portraits, views, and choice extracts made from the works of the authors noticed."-Freemasons' Magazine and Masonic Mirror. "Mr. Tweddell's introductory chapter cannot be praised too highly. He is an enthusiastic lover of good books, and tries hard, in this eloquent paper, to inoculate his readers with the same feeling; and has elaborately woven together the thoughts and opinions of most of our master minds on the uses and pleasures of books." -Ashton and Stalybridge Journal.
