Amid such new and varied surroundings it would be surprising indeed if
the author, with his faculty of making even the commonplace attractive,
did not tell an intensely interesting story of adventure, as well as
give much information in regard to the distant countries through which
our friends pass, and the strange peoples with whom they are brought in
contact. This book, and indeed the whole series, is admirably adapted
to reading aloud in the family circle, each volume containing matter
which will interest all the members of the family.――_Boston Budget._

“There never has been a more interesting writer in the field of
juvenile literature than Mr. W. T. ADAMS, who, under his well-known
pseudonym, is known and admired by every boy and girl in the country,
and by thousands who have long since passed the boundaries of youth,
yet who remember with pleasure the genial, interesting pen that did so
much to interest, instruct, and entertain their younger years. ‘The
Blue and the Gray’ is a title that is sufficiently indicative of the
nature and spirit of the latest series, while the name of OLIVER OPTIC
is sufficient warrant of the absorbing style of narrative. This series
is as bright and entertaining as any work that Mr. ADAMS has yet put
forth, and will be as eagerly perused as any that has borne his name.
It would not be fair to the prospective reader to deprive him of the
zest which comes from the unexpected by entering into a synopsis of
the story. A word, however, should be said in regard to the beauty
and appropriateness of the binding, which makes it a most attractive
volume.”――_Boston Budget._
