lifornia are told with that vigour which is peculiar to Mr.
Henty."--_The Academy._
"Mr. Henty is careful to mingle solid instruction with
entertainment; and the humorous touches, especially in the sketch

"Ronald, the hero, is very like the hero of _Quentin Durward_. The
lad's journey across France with his faithful attendant Malcolm,

enemies, make up as good a narrative of the kind as we have ever

and his graphic prose pictures of the hopeless Jewish resistance to

conscientiously, they can hardly fail to be profited as well as
pleased."--_The Times._
"A praiseworthy attempt to interest Br
