THE NATION.
Cy Warman can always impart a living interest to a story through his
close intimacy with locomotives, yard-masters, signals, switches, with
all that pertains to railroading, in a word--from a managers' meeting to
a frog. The tender enthusiasm he feels for the denizens of his iron
jungle is contagious.
THE OUTLOOK
Mr. Cy Warman, by long personal experience, acquired a close and exact
knowledge of the life of railroad men. "The White Mail" brings out
realistically the actual life of the engineer, the brakeman, and the
freight handler.
THE CONGREGATIONALIST
Cy Warman writes excellent railroad stories, of course, and his new one,
"The White Mail," is short, lively, and eminently readable.
ST. LOUIS GLOBE-DEMOCRAT
In "The White Mail," Cy Warman, in the pleasant, witty style for which
this poet of the Rockies has become noted, has presented a tender,
touching picture.

THE CONGREGATIONALIST
There is true power in Cy Warman's "Tales of an Engineer," and the
reader yields willingly to the attraction of its blended novelty,
spirit, and occasional pathos. It does not lack humor, and every page is
worth reading.
THE CHURCHMAN
A new departure in literature should be interesting even if lacking in
the brilliant off-hand sketchiness of these pages. One steps into a new
life. There is not a dull page in this book, and much of it is of more
than ordinary interest.
NEW YORK COMMERCIAL ADVERTISER
There is a rugged directness about the description of rushing runs on
the rail, through which one can hear the thump-thump of the machinery as
the engine dashes over the rails, and which seems to be illumined by the
glow of the headlights and the colored signals.
