“‘The Book of the Epic’ is a notable contribution to the history of racial poetry.”—Philadelphia Inquirer.

“A valuable book which it is a pleasure to recommend. The stories of the most famous epics of all the nations are told briefly and illustrated by reproductions from the masters of painting. It is, in fact, the first book published which contains all the great epics in scenario. This is a book to own, for it is a rich source of knowledge which many readings will not exhaust.”—Pittsburgh Post.
