Why these works (Beadle’s Dime Books) are popular, is a problem, quite as much for the moralist and the student of National character as for the critic. It is a satisfaction that, being so, they are, without exception, so far as we can judge, unexceptionably moral. * * They do not, even obscurely, pander to vice, or excite the passions.—North American Review For July, 1864.
