A SUITABLE PRESENT FOR YOUTH.
TALES OF OTHER DAYS.
ILLUSTRATIVE OF HISTORY.
By J. Y. A.
WITH ENGRAVINGS, AFTER DESIGNS BY
GEORGE CRUIKSHANK.
“This is one of the most attractive publications we have lately seen; it consists of a series of remarkably well-written and interesting Tales of the olden time, with Illustrations by George Cruikshank. Of these Illustrations it is scarcely possible to speak in any other than terms of unqualified praise—they combine so much of the ludicrous and the terrible, and are so completely in Cruikshank’s best style, that we feel justified in expressing an opinion that this publication will even add to that unrivalled artist’s fame. The volume is altogether well got up—the printing is remarkably neat, and the Tales are of a pleasingly varied character.”—Weekly Dispatch.
