PRESS OPINIONS OF EDWARD STRATEMEYER'S BOOKS FOR YOUNG PEOPLE.
"Mr. Edward Stratemeyer is in danger of becoming very popular
among the young people of the country."--_Burlington (Iowa)
Hawk-eye._
"'The Last Cruise of the Spitfire' is of deep interest to the
bounding heart of an enthusiastic boy. The book leaves a good
impression on a boy's mind, as it teaches the triumph of noble
deeds and true heroism."--_Kansas City_ (Mo.) _Times._
"Let us mention in passing two admirable books for boys, 'Reuben
Stone's Discovery' and 'Oliver Bright's Search,' by Edward
Stratemeyer, with whom we are all acquainted. This last bit of his
work is especially good, and the boy who gets one of these volumes
will become very popular among his fellows until the book is worn
threadbare."--_N. Y. Herald._
"A good sea-tale for boys is 'The Last Cruise of the Spitfire,'
by Edward Stratemeyer. There is plenty of adventure in it, a
shipwreck, a cruise on a raft, and other stirring perils of the
deep."--_Detroit_ (Mich.) _Journal._
"In a simple, plain, straightforward manner, Mr. Edward
Stratemeyer endeavors to show his boy readers what persistency,
honesty, and willingness to work have accomplished for his young
hero, and his moral is evident. Mr. Stratemeyer is very earnest
and sincere in his portraiture of young character beginning to
shape itself to weather against the future. A book of this sort is
calculated to interest boys, to feed their ambition with hope, and
to indicate how they must fortify themselves against the wiles of
vice."--_Boston Herald._
