"The subject of a biography, if the author's work is to be attractive, must be the centre of the world in which he moves. Unfortunately for Mr. Dalton, Edward Cecil was never the centre of anything. He was a good, honest soldier of considerable military abilities, and undoubted courage. He showed skill and bravery in a subordinate post in the Dutch war. ... The consequence is that much even of the biographical part of the book is dreary reading. Details of campaigns in the Netherlands at the end of the 16th century hang very loosely on Cecil, and are out of place any where except in a history of the Netherlands or in a biography of Maurice, whose skill they illustrate. Uuluckily Mr. Dalton has attempted not merely to write the life, but also, the times of Sir Edward Cecil. Whether he might be a historian if he gave time enough to acquire the necessary knowledge, it would be difficult to affirm or deny. That his knowledge is inadequate is beyond question." S: R.
