"This book reminds us of one of those pleasant fellows, whom one sometimes meets with in company, who has an anecdote or a story ready à propos of everything, whose fund of amusing tales is inexhaustible, and who rattling on from one thing to another, will keep a whole table in a roar, or a whole drawing-room in high glee. Even such is our author. He gossips on and on, telling now of one adventure, and then of another; his volume is a perfect chaos of racy reminiscences graphically told."—John Bull.
