“The author of Haverhill is evidently an informed man, an original thinker, an acute observer, and a vigorous writer. He is no imitator; he thinks for himself; he puts his trust in his own feelings, and writes as he thinks and feels; he is no mere literary echo. The fruit with which he presents us is indigenous, and bears the aroma, fresh and fragrant, of its own native soil. Those portions of the book which are really matters of history cannot well be surpassed. They teem with ‘thoughts that breathe and words that burn.’ We recommend it to all that desire to admire, and be instructed as well as amused.”——Athenæum.
“It is to the full as earnest and impressive, and conceived in nearly as philosophical a spirit as Lawrie Todd, while it is more full of adventure, character, and historical details.”——Atlas.
