“Another volume of the ‘Source books of American history,’ and a notable one; first published in 1775, reprinted the next year, soon translated into French and German, and reissued in enlarged form in 1798, from which this new reprint is made. It is hardly necessary to say that a book with such a history, and long out of print, richly deserves to be rescued from the obscurity into which it had fallen in the lapse of more than a century.”—Critic.
