"Enormous burlesque--unapproachable and pre-eminent. We venture
to think that this very queer volume will be a favourite.
It deserves to be so; and we should suggest that, to a dull
person desirous to get credit with the young holiday people, it
would be good policy to invest in the book, and dole it out by
instalments."--_Saturday Review._
