It is especially a boy’s book, calculated to afford both pleasure and profit, treating of those topics in which boys take particular interest. There are chapters on gymnastic exercises, games, and sports of all kinds; the boy’s workshop; how to build boats, etc.; musical instruments; toys; conjurers and conjuring; ventriloquism; and pleasant and profitable occupation for spare hours.
“It gives the boys such instruction as they like, and will keep many an active boy employed in his workshop and away from a companionship that is hurtful. It is both a useful and a beautiful book.”—Chicago Inter-Ocean.
