lustrated by Nast and others. First Series. Six volumes. Any volume sold separately.

"The story from its inception, and through the twelve volumes (see Second Series), is a bewitching one, while the information imparted concerning the countries of Europe and the isles of the sea is not only correct in every particular, but is told in a captivating style. OLIVER OPTIC will continue to be the boys' friend, and his pleasant books will continue to be read by thousands of American boys. What a fine holiday present either or both series of 'Young America Abroad' would be for a young friend! It would make a little library highly prized by the recipient, and would not be an expensive one."--_Providence Press_. +Young America Abroad.+ By OLIVER OPTIC. Second Series. Six volumes. Illustrated. Any volume sold separately. Price per volume, $1.25. 1. +Up the Baltic+; or, Young America in Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. 2. +Northern Lands+; or, Young America in Russia and Prussia. 3. +Cross and Crescent+; or, Young America in Turkey and Greece. 4. +Sunny Shores+; or, Young America in Italy and Austria. 5. +Vine and Olive+; or, Young America in Spain and Portugal. 6. +Isles of the Sea+; or, Young America Homeward Bound. "OLIVER OPTIC is a _nom de plume_ that is known and loved by almost every boy of intelligence in the land. We have seen a highly intellectual and world-weary man, a cynic whose heart was somewhat embittered by its large experience of human nature, take up one of OLIVER OPTIC's books, and read it at a sitting, neglecting his work in yielding to the fascination of the pages. When a mature and exceedingly well-informed mind, long despoiled of all its freshness, can thus find pleasure in a book for boys, no additional words of recommendation are needed."--_Sunday Times_.
