”There was no need to invent conditions or imagine situations. The life of any lad of Billy Topsail's years up there is sufficiently romantic. It is this skill in the portrayal of actual conditions that lie ready to the hand of the intelligent observer that makes Mr.
Duncan's Newfoundland stories so noteworthy. 'The Adventures of Billy Topsail' is a wonderful book.”--_Brooklyn Eagle._

Every boy who knows Billy Topsail will welcome this continuation of his adventuresome life in the North. Like its predecessor, the new volume is a stirring story for boys, true to life, among the hardy sons of the sea, clean, pure and stimulating.

_Convention Teacher_: ”An admirable book in every way. The writer has read many of the stories to his own children, and they have been received with delight. We commend the book to mothers and to the teachers of little children.”
_Scottish Review_: ”Here is a book which many will welcome. The auth.o.r.ess has considerable experience and real skill in the art of imparting religious ideas to very young minds, as well as a manifest love of such labor.”
_Religious Telescope_: ”If it were in our power it would be introduced into every home where there is a child.”
_Central Presbyterian_: ”Best of its kind we have yet seen.”
_Southwestern Christian Advocate_: ”Tells the little ones in a way quite original and exceptional the beautiful stories of the Old Testament.”
_Evangelical_: ”It is a pleasure to recommend a book that will supply a long-felt need on the part of the Christian mother. The nature study which abounds throughout the book in one of its strong attractions, teaching the little children to a.s.sociate the beauties of natural animal life with G.o.d, the giver of all these blessings.”
