"There never has been a more interesting writer in the field of
juvenile literature than Mr. W. T. ADAMS, who, under his well-known
pseudonym, is known and admired by every boy and girl in the
country, and by thousands Who have long since passed the boundaries
of youth, yet who remember with pleasure the genial, interesting pen
that did so much to interest, instruct, and entertain their younger
years. 'The Blue and the Gray' is a title that is sufficiently
indicative of the nature and spirit of the latest series, while the
name of OLIVER OPTIC is sufficient warrant of the absorbing style of
narrative. This series is as bright and entertaining as any work
that Mr. ADAMS has yet put forth, and will be as eagerly perused as
any that has borne his name. It would not be fair to the prospective
reader to deprive him of the zest which comes from the unexpected by
entering into a synopsis of the story. A word, however, should be
said in regard to the beauty and appropriateness of the binding,
which makes it a most attractive volume."--_Boston Budget_.
