The object of this Book is to include, in one general alphabetical list,
all those who have any definite position, or title, from Hereditary rank,
or order conferred on them by the Sovereign, or from any of the higher
grades of the Military, Naval, Legal, Clerical, or Colonial Services of
the State; also Deputy Lieutenants, Royal Academicians, Presidents and
Vice-Presidents of Learned Societies, County Court Judges, and the larger
landowners of the United Kingdom. It is to be observed that it is the
only book which enables any one, by reference to a sing1e list, to determine
whether any person having a particular title exists, and if so, to discover
•
his residence.
"Not the least valuable of Messrs. Kelly's Directories is the' Handbook to the Titled, Landed and Official Classes.' This, of course,
travels over much the same ground as the' Royal Blue·Book' and other books that have been noticed, but the method of treatment is
different. Almost the whole of the Handbook is an alphabetical list. This obviates the necessity of consulting a variety of book~, and
makes the most perfect form of reference book that can be fnund."-The Times, February 11th, 1890.
"One of the best books of reference known to us is 'Kelly's Handbook to the Titled, Landed and Official Classes,' a most convenient
work, containing as it does all county magistrates and all members of the various 'Orders,' and enabling the reader to find in a moment
all those persons who are commonly described as' somebody.' "-The .Atheflceum, February 15th, 1890.
"No effort has been spared to give the latest information, and of this we have found some unexpected proofs. We are, from our own
knowledge, in a position to recommend the work as a manual of the greatest utility."- The Queen, February 11ith, 1890.
" For general use there is no more compact work than' Kelly's Handbook to the Titled, Landed and Official Classes.' "-Daily Chronicle,
February 7th, 1890.
"Is an invaluable work of reference, as the names of all classes having a social status are contained within its pages, whereby the
necessity for referring to various works for different sections of society is avoided. The corrections have been brought down to the latest
possible period, and the volume will be found equal to any of its predecessors in accuracy.''-Court Jourrurl, March 1st, 1890. ·
"Is one of the handiest and completest books of reference of its kind. The volume for 1890, which has just been issued, is to the full
8'1 complete, as concise, and as exhaustive in range as it has ever been. There are many names here which may be looked for in vain else-
where; and the vast amount of information in the book is so well arranged that what is required may be found in a moment."-St.JameJ'
Gazttte, February 25th, 1890.
"It is stated that the proof of every entry has been submitted to the person referred to, in order to ensure accuracy. As the result
of frequent use, we can speak highly of its utility and trustworthiness."-TM Globe, February Brd, 1890.
"It is, of coune, a book that calls for no criticism, but it may be stated that the work has been very carefully built up, and with an
accuracy not always to be found in companion publications. Every writing.table and reading.room ought to have a copy,"-The White·
hall Review, February 8th, 1890.
"Among the tables prefixed is one of the relative rank and precedence in the Army and Navy, and lists of the regiments of the Lin~
and Militia according to their old and new designations, are alsc given."-The .Army and Navy Gautte, March 15th, 1890.
"This work hu for sixteen years supplied a much·felt want, because it is not se cumbersome as Burke's Peerage, takes in a. larger
number of names, and is alphabetically arranged so as to be very convenient for reference."-2'"he Civil Serfliu Gazette, Feb. 8th. 1890.
" It should certainly find a place in the library of all who make a point of possessing every refl'rence book calculated to prove of use
in everyday life."- City Pre1s, February oth, 1890.
"This excellent reference-book, which now reaches its sixteenth annual edition, is one of the most complete things of its kind in
existence. It saves those interested in knowing who'll who a world of trouble, and is a. condensed peerage, baroneta.ge, knightage, Court
.guide, and county family directory all in one."-The Echo, January Slllt, 1890.
