The article presents information on the book "The Life of Augustin Daly," by Joseph Francis Daly. The author, doubtlessly, was inspired by a conscientious desire to present the fullest possible record of his brother's life and labor, and he has succeeded in rearing a notable monument of fraternal affection. But, though a respected and capable judge, he had little skill in book-making. The legal habit of his mind is betrayed in the accumulation of the smallest details, rather than in orderly and discriminating use of them. His relation, especially in some of the' earlier chapters, is often exceedingly confused and rambling.
