"If every boy could read these stories, or have them read to him,
there would be fewer rogues in the world. Straightforward, honest
stories, without cant, without moralizing, full of genuine fun and
hard common sense, they are just the tales that are needed to make
a young fellow fall in love with simple integrity and fair dealing.
They are noble contributions to juvenile literature."--_Woman's
Journal_.
"Mr. Trowbridge has a good perception of character, which he draws
with skill; he has abundance of invention, which he never abuses;
and he has, what so many American writers have not, an easy, graceful
style, which can be humorous, or pathetic, or poetic."--_R. H.
Stoddard in N.Y. Mail_.

THE SCARLET TANAGER
"No better or more pleasing writer for young folks than Mr.
Trowbridge can be found. He draws his characters true to life,
concealing no faults, and exaggerating no virtues, but paints each
in their own lights and shadows so vividly that to avoid the one and
imitate the other must be the natural impulse of all boys and girls
who read his most excellent and fascinating stories.
