“No student of literature can afford to be without this work; and to subscribe for it at once, and study each volume as it comes out, is the best way for those who have not much time or money at their disposal. There is really no reason why the lover of the best literature should not read this excellent selection steadily through from the first page to the last.”—National Baptist, Philadelphia.
“I have received thirteen volumes of Alden’s Cyclopedia of Literature, and am more than satisfied with them. I think the same amount of equally well digested information could not have been brought to my shelves from other sources for double the cost of these volumes. Both their manner and matter are excellent.”—H. H. McIntire, West Randolph, Vt.
“We hail with pleasure every new volume of this most unique and interesting work.”—Farm, Field and Stockman, Chicago, Ill.
“I have received volumes XII. and XIII. of the Cyclopedia of Universal Literature, and am more and more surprised at the cheapness and thoroughness of the work. When completed, I do not think there will be its equal in the language.”—Mrs. Lois J. Campbell, Fairfield, Pa.
