=The Observer=.--"A singularly illuminating and intimate monograph."

=The Week's Survey=.--"Mr. Menpes gives us an extraordinarily vivid account
of the technical methods which Whistler employed. This in itself must make
his book a text-book for all time."

=The Magazine of Art=.--"It is all wonderfully true to life, obviously
sincere and convincing, and vastly entertaining."

=The Bystander=.--"One of the most delightful biographical sketches which
has appeared for a long time."

=To-day=.--"A deeply interesting and an extremely entertaining volume."

=The Daily News=.--"A quite miraculous study that, like Shallow, ought to
provide the world with laughter for the wearing out of six fashions. And
after that the pictures will still remain a permanent joy."

A.M.B. in =The King=.--"By far the most valuable and interesting book on
Whistler which has been written, or, indeed, is ever likely to be written."

=T.P.'s Weekly=.--"An honest and clear study of the great artist."

A.C.R.C. in =The Outlook=.--"It bears the impress of actuality, and is
probably the truest chain of living pictures of Whistler's personality that
any 'follower' could have made."

=Dundee Advertiser=.--"Told in a most fascinating manner."

=The World=.--"An extremely interesting and valuable historical document."
