Excerpt from A Life of William Charles Macready This book is distinctively an American estimate of the characteristics and achievements of an English actor, whose influence on the player's art and a new form of dramatic literature was as marked with us as in England. It may be safely said that many of Bulwer's plays have been seen by greater multitudes in America than in the land of their first production. The unfortunate complication with Edwin Forrest furnished an incident that will remain a striking bit of stage history. It is almost needless to say that a recognition of Macready's power and services to the stage is fundamental to the trustworthiness of this account of him; but a frank analysis of his character is just as essential to a full understanding of his relation to our stage history.

Excerpt from William Charles Macready The chief authority for a Life of Macready is, of course, his az'izz'sfemes, Diaries, and Lefz'ers, edited by Sir Frederick Pollock. His unfortunately, ficome to an abrupt end at the close of the year 1826. Iup to that point, my main task has been to check his statements (which I find surprisingly accurate, even where he had only childish memories to draw upon), and to supplement them by extracts from contemporary docu ments. From 1826 onwards - that is to say, during the last twenty-five years of Macready's life as an actor - the dry affords only fragmentary information. It is valuable rather as an expression of character than as a record of events. In the following pages, then, the story of Macready's whole career is told for the first time, with.

Excerpt from The Diaries of William Charles Macready, Vol. 1 of 2: 1833-1851 On his return to England, after a short and somewhat featureless interval at Drury Lane (where he came into contact with another indi vidual also destined to become a formidable enemy, Alfred Bunn), Macready paid a visit to Paris, the e'clat of which went far to com pensate him for the uneventfulness of his recent appearances in London. The Parisian Press, in fact, acclaimed him with an almost universal chorus of praise, the culminating honour being paid by Jules Janin, who went so far as to pronounce him the equal of Talma.

Excerpt from The Diaries of William Charles Macready, 1833-1851, Vol. 2 of 2 May 8th. - Heard that Sir R. Peel had received the Queen's orders to form a Ministry; was deeply distressed to hear it, feeling that the hopes of those who looked forward to a Government as an instrument to effect the moral and intellectual improvement, and the amelioration of the condition, of the people are now crushed. I suffered much from low spirits. Acted Cardinal Richelieu pretty well; was called for by the audience and well received.

Excerpt from The Drama of Yesterday to-Day, Vol. 1 of 2 Of my ability, to avoid anything that might be described as acrimonious controversy. But, be it history or reminiscence, it was impossible to discard strong reference to what I venture to call the politics of the drama. The story of the stage and its brilliantly successful career, step by step, could not be told without insisting on the proved value of free trade in dramatic art, and a wholesome independence in dramatic criticism. I shall be content, however, if it be acknowledged that no animosity has soiled the record of the past, and that I at least have remembered and tried to recall old scenes, old associations, Old friendships, and celebrated players, with all the delightful and happy memories connected with them. The drama of the Victorian era is without a doubt a most interesting, varied, and most exhaustive study. In it we travel from the time Of the patent theatres, special monopolies and protectionist privileges, all sup posed to have been instituted in the interests of art, but which unquestionably retarded its progress, to the heroic and heart-breaking struggle for better things at Covent Garden, Drury Lane, and elsewhere with which must be ever connected the honoured name of William Charles Macready.

Excerpt from Richelieu, or the Conspiracy: Drama, in Five Acts It has been fairly remarked, by the most impartial historians, that he was no less generous to merit than severe to crime - that, in the various departments of the State, the Army, and the Church, he selected and distinguished the ablest aspirants that the wars which he conducted were, for the most part, essen tial to the preservation of France, and Europe itself, from the formidable encroachments of the Austrian House - that, in spite of those wars, the people were not oppressed with exorbitant imposts - and that he left the kingdom he had governed in a more flourishing and vigorous state than at any former period of the French history, or at the decease of Louis XIV.
