York Observer._

young and old. He is also the most popular author of juvenile books now

"The writer, although by no means an imitator of Jacob Abbott, shows a
good deal of talent in the same field."
_From the Boston Journal._
"While in general this story resembles Mr. Abbott's, it is superior to
some of that author's later works. It is marked by his best
characteristics--the easy, natural dialogue, wholesome, moral and
religious tone, and simple explanatory style, without being tiresome in
repetition. It describes home scenes and suggests home amusements."

_From the Boston Transcript._
"Mr. Trowbridge has never written anything that was not popular, and
each new work has added to his fame. He has a wonderful faculty as a
portrayer of New England characteristics, and New England scenes."
_From the Salem Register._
"Mr. Trowbridge will find many welcomers to the field of authorship as
often as he chooses to enter it, and to leave as pleasant a record
behind him as the story of "Father Brighthope." The "Old Battle Ground"
is worthy of his reputation as one of the very best portrayers of New
England character and describers of New England scenes."
