“No more entertaining book has ever been written about early life in British North America.”—_Montreal Witness._ “Few productions of a woman’s pen show sounder judgment, higher culture and better literary taste than this book.”—_Mail and Empire._ “The authors have thoroughly imbued themselves with the ’spirit of the times’ of which they wrote. Their sympathy is infectious.”—_Ottawa Citizen._ “The authors have a keen sense of the ludicrous side of things, and a happy knack of seizing the salient traits of a personality and bringing it strongly before the reader.”—_Kingston News._ “Unquestionably one of the best local histories. It possesses a permanent value as a realistic and thoroughly intelligent record of the condition of pioneer colonial life.”—PROF. MAVOR, in _Massey’s Magazine_. “It is a lively, interesting and perfectly fresh opening of a field of history of which people in the Old Country know little, and which even to Canadians must be full of the attraction of novelty and originality both in subject and treatment.”—PROF.

Principal Grant=, in _Toronto Globe_. “The reader finds many amusing pages illustrative of the primitive ideas of the people, nor are tales of cruelty and outrage wanting to make up the grimmer side of the picture.”—_Detroit Free Press._ “The authors are of French extraction, and come honestly by the epigrammatic style, which their former work familiarized us with, and which renders the opening chapter of this volume brilliant.”—_Montreal Witness._
