“The volume is never dull and never superficial; but it is very long and very diffuse; it deals with an enormous variety of subjects; and at last, after five hundred and fifty pages, it stops short without having reached the confines of mature Elizabethan literature, and without having touched upon Elizabethan drama at all.”

Kaler, James Otis (James Otis, pseud.). Aboard the Hylow on Sable Island bank. †$1.50. Dutton.
7–28976.
The Hylow was a fishing schooner and two boys came aboard her as stowaways; the one, a messenger boy, carried off by mistake while helping the other, an English lad, to escape the officials who would have deported him. The account of their voyage will interest other boys and teach them much of the ways of the sea and the sea-men and of the life on the Newfoundland banks.
“[Adventures are described] with sufficient frequency to sustain the interest without exceeding the bounds of probability.”
