“Mr. Stewart’s new work comprises a selection of stories of the sea told in his best style and being historically accurate, ranks high among popular volumes intended to combine entertainment with instruction. To young and old alike the book ought to be profitable, for from it a very lucid account may be obtained of many of those momentous occurrences which have served to swell the history of England, and to afford an example to succeeding generations.”—_Bazaar._ “A delightful volume of adventure. Rebellions and mutinies come jostling up against hair-breadth escapes and mournful disasters; while the south seas and the north, the equator and the poles, are all brought to notice by the judicious and able editor, MR. HENRY STEWART.”—_Bedfordshire Mercury._ “It may fairly claim to be a popular volume, combining entertainment with instruction. The book is well written, the accounts of naval engagements are graphic and inspiring, and if no attempts have been made to write a systematic history of maritime enterprise, there is at all events presented a vast mass of information in an attractive form.”—_Athenæum._ “A flight through the air on the enchanted prayer-carpet would not surpass in interest the movement of these narratives from ‘summer isles of Eden lying in dark purple spheres of sea’ to the iron coast of Nova Zembla.”—_Sheffield Independent._ “A singularly interesting volume. The narratives are well told, and the illustrations plentiful; young people will be sure to like it, and will pick up from it, in a pleasant way, a good deal of historical information.”—_Guardian._ “‘The Ocean Wave’ is far more interesting than nine-tenths of the story books. Coming down to more modern times, Mr. Stewart gives us some stirring episodes in the last American War, the moving tale of Arctic Exploration, from the time of Cabot to the Jeannette Expedition, and concludes a most interesting and useful volume with an account of the famous shipwrecks in recent times.”—_Literary Churchman._ WITH TWELVE ILLUSTRATIONS BY THOMAS STOTHARD, R.A., AND A PORTRAIT OF DEFOE.
