"The book has been compiled with care, and the biographical sketches are well rendered. It is elegantly got up, and will doubtless be widely read."—Friends' Quarterly Examiner.
"The book can hardly fail to be widely read as its sterling merit becomes known."—Hastings Observer.
"One of the most remarkable features of this volume is the fact that of the sixty-five poets sketched and quoted in its pages, not fewer than twenty-six are women. It is doubtful whether any other religious body could produce an equal proportion of female singers."—Glasgow Herald.
"The volume has an introduction of ten well-written pages on the rise of Quakerism and Quaker poetry, which fittingly leads up to the condensed biographical notices of each author whose works are quoted.... The book is admirably done, and the editor is entitled to the thanks of all who are interested in the preservation of the literature of the Society of Friends."—Christian Leader.

THE RED, RED WINE,
BY THE REV. J. JACKSON WRAY.
"This, as its name implies, is a temperance story, and is told in the lamented author's most graphic style. We have never read anything so powerful since 'Danesbury House,' and this book in stern and pathetic earnestness even excels that widely-known book. It is worthy a place in every Sunday School and village library; and, as the latest utterance of one whose writings are so deservedly popular, it is sure of a welcome. It should give decision to some whose views about Local Option are hazy."—Joyful News.
"The story is one of remarkable power."—The Temperance Record.
"An excellent and interesting story."—The Temperance Chronicle.
"It is written in a graphic and conversational style, abounding with rapidly-succeeding incidents, which arrest and sustain the interest of the reader."—The League Journal.
