"The pleasure we have experienced in perusing these sheets, has
been considerably heightened by our confidence in the accuracy of
the contents (Major Stewart giving notes and references from the
most authentic materials), and from the modest, unassuming manner
in which the whole is written. The work Major Stewart proposed to
write was one of great curiosity to all classes of readers, and a
desideratum of real consequence to Oriental scholars."--_British
Critic._
