“As for the hero of this story ‘His One Fault’ was absent-mindedness. He forgot to lock his uncle’s stable door, and the horse was stolen. In seeking to recover the stolen horse, he unintentionally stole another. In trying to restore the wrong horse to his rightful owner, he was himself arrested. After no end of comic and dolorous adventures, he surmounted all his misfortunes by downright pluck and genuine good feeling. It is a noble contribution to juvenile literature.”—Woman’s Journal.
Peter Budstone.
“Mr. J. T. Trowbridge’s ‘Peter Budstone’ is another of those altogether good and wholesome books for boys of which it is hardly possible to speak too highly. This author shows us convincingly how juvenile reading may be made vivacious and interesting, and yet teach sound and clean lessons. ‘Peter Budstone’ shows forcibly the folly and crime of ‘hazing.’ It is the story of a noble young fellow whose reason is irreparably overthrown by the savage treatment he received from some of his associates at college. It is a powerful little book, and we wish every schoolboy and college youth could read it.”—Philadelphia American.
