I liked it a lot — especially the middle chapters. Would recommend to beginners in Essays & Criticism. Finished over the weekend.

Seamless purchase → library → download. Book itself is excellent too. Thanks for the quick download.
I re-read chapter 3 twice. That alone made the $2.99 worth it. Shared with my book club.
Macaulay, Thomas Babington Macaulay, Baron delivers. Wish there were more examples, but still a 4-star for me.
