Northern Icebergs.

From the Independent. (April 2, 1891.)

This book is a compilation and vigorous condensation of the voluminous history of Arctic exploration, particularly of Capt. Richard Perry's recent volume. It answers the purposes of a brief popular sketch very well.

From the Christian at Work. (April 2, 1891.)

This little book contains very interesting sketches of the Arctic expeditions of England and America in the nineteenth century, and is full of instruction. It is a book which will fascinate young folks, and add very materially to their stock of knowledge. It is written in a pleasant style, full of handsome illustrations, and attractively bound.

From the Ill. Christian Weekly. (April 11, 1891.)

Such books as this are very valuable not only for young people who would not read the larger ones, but for busy men and women who for the want of time cannot peruse them. The book is cheap, contains a number of picture illustrations, is written in a pleasing style, and is just the kind of reading to give to our young people.

From the Christian Oracle. (March 19, 1891.)

This little volume, well printed and handsomely bound, is intended for American youth. It embraces accounts of these wonderful regions which cannot fail to interest young readers. Then it is of real service because of the history it contains. Many books are read eagerly without any good results. A boy cannot read this book without learning something of real service to him.
