There is so much amiable optimism contained in these papers that they are well calculated to produce a cheerful frame of mind in their readers.... Their reasonableness is their merit, and they are distinguished by a ripeness of reflection and temperateness of judgment that are fortunately within reach of every average man and woman.—N. Y. Evening Post.
Colonel Higginson has the advantage of a sound and simple philosophy of life to show off his fine literary culture. The one makes him worth reading—strong, open-minded, and wholesome; the other gives him graces of form, style, and literary attraction in great variety.—Independent, N. Y.
Women and Men. 16mo, Cloth, $1 00.
These essays are replete with common-sense ideas, expressed in well-chosen language, and reflect on every page the humor, wit, wisdom of the author.—N. Y. Sun.
Bright, suggestive, practical, and charming, and the work is sure to be widely popular.—Interior, Chicago.
Delightfully clever.... Perfect examples of what the short essay on a social subject should be.—Boston Transcript.
