The Morning Post.—“This delightful book. Lively is a poor name for it, it scintillates with life. We are soon carried away with the zest of it, and the irrepressible humour which bubbles out on every page.”
The Manchester Courier.—“Those who had the good fortune to encounter the charming record of the ‘Two Dianas in Somaliland’ will want no recommendation to the equally sprightly description of their adventures in Alaska. Miss Herbert has a ready sense of humour, and her wayside jottings are inimitable.”
Fortnightly Review.—“Miss Herbert has a happy knack of amusing the reader on almost every page of her bright narrative, and this alone places her above the majority of writers on travel. It is with her asides, her not unkindly satire, her unabated philosophy, that Miss Herbert attracts the reader.”
Pall Mall Gazette.—“Miss Herbert has a pretty wit, word-pictures of magic beauty. The book is witty, picturesque, exciting, and the effect on the tired brain of a dweller in cities is that of a breeze bringing health from a salutary land.”
