GEORGE VARIAN and B. WEST CLINEDINST
PALL MALL GAZETTE.—"A fine book.... They are exciting reading.... Eminently informing."
ACADEMY.—"Mr. Frank R. Stockton is always interesting, whether he writes for young or old."
SCOTSMAN.—"In these stirring romances of the sea he does not profess to give anything fresh; he merely puts into bright, crisp, modern language, the tales that were told in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries by the recognized chroniclers of the deeds of the freebooters who disported themselves on the American coasts in those picturesque times.... The book is very finely illustrated."
INDEPENDENT (NEW YORK).—"This book of buccaneers will stir the blood of young people who care for stories that tell of wild fighting on pirate ships and lawless riots ashore in the time when the ocean was not at command of steam's civilizing power.... Mr. Stockton has given the charm of his genius to the book."
