THE N.Y.INDEPENDENT.—"They carry the reader back to the times in which they were written, and reproduce the passion of those stirring days."
THE CONGREGATIONALIST.—"It goes without saying that these treat of significant topics, are breezy and graphic, and are full of earnest patriotism and piety."
THE ADVANCE.—"A good book.Instantaneous photographs of just the most vital and significant events which have given character and the turn of destiny to this epoch-making period."
NORTH WESTERN CHRISTIAN ADVOCATE.Chicago.—"Dr. Roy's book deserves to live and nobody can kill it if he tries.We hope it may have a large sale,—10,000 copies, and then a new edition."
