Mr. Tomlinson, who knows the "ins and outs" of boy nature by heart, is
one of the most entertaining and at the same time one of the most
instructive of living writers of juvenile fiction. In his younger days a
teacher by profession, he has made boys and their idiosyncrasies the
absorbing study of his life, and, with the accumulated experience of
years to aid him, has applied himself to the task of preparing for their
mental delectation a diet that shall be at once wholesome and
attractive; and that his efforts in this laudable direction have been
successful is conclusively proven by his popularity among boy readers.

=PRESS NOTICES.=
"'Under Dewey at Manila' is a thoroughly timely
book, in perfect sympathy with the patriotism of
the day. Its title is conducive to its perusing,
and its reading to anticipation. For the volume is
but the first of the Old Glory Series, and the
imprint is that of the famed firm of Lee and
Shepard, whose name has been for so many years
linked with the publications of Oliver Optic. As a
matter of fact, the story is right in line with
the productions of that gifted and most
fascinating of authors, and certainly there is
every cause for congratulation that the stirring
events of our recent war are not to lose their
value for instruction through that valuable school
which the late William T. Adams made so
individually distinctive.
