vii Prior to 1821, no critical review of any American work of literature of the first order had appeared in the Quar- 30 TORY CRITICISM IN THE QUARTERLY REVIEW terly. Irving 's Sketch Book, coming from the press of Murray about this time, however, was given a very credit- able appreciation by Henry Matthews. Altho Irving 's sprightliness and elegance of style and his faculty for the lively transmission of sensations and impressions were commended, Matthews could not resist the opportunity to ta...ke a side-thrust at the American people. The political aspersions, however, have nothing to do with Irving, who must have been well satisfied with the notice his book re- ceived. Later Granada was well reviewed by the author himself, in the hope of stimulating the sale. The article was largely an explanation of Irving 's method. viii In Quarterly criticism there are three outstanding figures : Southey, Scott, and Byron. Two were most essen- tial to the early success of the Review. The last was Mur- ray 's lion, the literary son of Gifford, the revered idol of all the Tory pens, in spite of his liberal and erratic politics.
