And with all this he does not sacrifice the dignity of history for
an instant."--_Boston Saturday Evening Gazette._
"The delightful style, the clear flow of the narrative, the
philosophical tone, and the able analysis of men and events will
commend Mr. Eggleston's work to earnest students."--_Philadelphia
Public Ledger._
"The work is worthy of careful reading, not only because of the
author's ability as a literary artist, but because of his
conspicuous proficiency in interpreting the causes of and changes
in American life and character."--_Boston Journal._
"It is noticeable that Mr. Eggleston has followed no beaten track,
but has drawn his own conclusions as to the early period, and they
differ from the generally received version not a little. The book
is stimulating and will prove of great value to the student of
history."--_Minneapolis Journal._
"A very interesting as well as a valuable book.... A distinct
advance upon most that has been written, particularly of the
settlement of New England."--_Newark Advertiser._
"One of the most important books of the year. It is a work of art
as well as of historical science, and its distinctive purpose is to
give an insight into the real life and character of people.... The
author's style is charming, and the history is fully as interesting
as a novel.
