It has evidently been prepared with great labor, and, as far as I can judge, from the best materials and sources of information.... I have no doubt it will be found an extremely useful work, well calculated to supply a want which must have been severely felt by almost every class of readers.—From the Hon. EDWARD EVERETT.

Having long felt the necessity of a work of this kind, I have spent no small amount of time in examining yours. It seems to me so important to have a comprehensive and authentic gazetteer in all our colleges, academies, and schools, that I am induced in this instance to depart from my general rule in regard to giving recommendations.... The rising generation will be greatly benefited, both in the accuracy and extent of their information, should your work be kept as a book of reference on the table of every professor and teacher in the country.—From the Hon. HORACE MANN, LL.D., President of Antioch College.

It gives me pleasure to be able to say that I have found it, as far as examined, not only very correct, but very full and comprehensive; and that I consider it a desideratum alike to the scholar and the man of business, as well as a very valuable contribution to our American literature.—From ELIPHALET NOTT, D.D., LL.D., President of Union College.

This is a great work, and executed with immense labor and consummate ability.... It would be difficult to find another volume in the English language which contains, in the same space, an equal amount of important, well-digested, and clearly-expressed information. I see not how the office or the counting-room, the family or the school, can anywhere afford to do without this book.—From Prof. C. E. STOWE, Andover Theo. Seminary.
