AbstractHistoryArchive Description

The Freeman's Journal reproduces the Dublin Weekly News's critique of Queen Victoria's Leaves from the Journal of Our Life in the Highlands from 1848 to 1861: To Which Are Prefixed and Added Extracts from the Same Journal Giving an Account of Earlier Visits to Scotland and Tours in England and Ireland, and Yachting Excursions.

The Irish newspaper declares the publication ‘utterly destitute of pretensions to literary merit’ and believes that ‘a similar narrative written by anyone else would be spoken of … contemptuously by the press, if indeed it would be dignified by notice at all’.
