“We err greatly if Lieut. Maury’s book will not hereafter be
classed with the works of the great men who have taken the lead
in extending and improving knowledge and art; his book displays
in a remarkable degree, like the ‘Advancement of Learning,’ and
the ‘Natural History’ of Buffon, profound research and magnificent
imagination.”—_Illustrated London News._
