This article presents information on the book "Further Memories," by Algernon Bertram Freeman-Mitford Redesdale. Redesdale's "Further Memories" will be a disappointment to those who read his "Memories" with interest and who looked for a new installment of agreeable autobiographical facts and gossip. It is less a volume of recollections than of literary odds and ends, apparently put together by his executors or friends for the benefit of a public whose appreciation of the first volume sent it through several editions. Redesdale no doubt loved his bamboo grove, but he has not the talent to share his pleasure with his readers or to give them the clue to his love of a garden so out of character with English skies and English landscape.
