Excerpt from Early English Voyagers: Or, the Adventures and Discoveries of Drake, Cavendish, and Dampier Tho following opinions, selected from highly respectable Journals, will enable those who are unacquainted with the Family Library to form an estimate of its merits. Numerous other notices, equally favourable, and from sources equally respectable, might be presented if deemed necessary. "The Family Library. - A very excellent, and always entertaining Miscellany." - Edinburgh Review, No. 103. The Family Library presents, in a compendious and convenient form, well-written histories of popular men, kingdoms, sciences, &c. arranged and edited by able writers, and drawn entirely from the most correct and accredited authorities. It is, as it professes to be, a Family Library, from which, at little expense, a household may prepare themselves for a consideration of those elementary subjects of education and society, without a due acquaintance with which neither man nor woman has claim to be well bred, or to take their proper place among those with whom they abide." - Charleston Gazette. "We have repeatedly borne testimony to the utility of this work. It is one of the best that has ever been issued from the American press, and should be in the library of every family desirous of treasuring up useful knowledge." - Boston Statesman. The Family Library should be in the hands of every person. Thus far it has treated of subjects interesting to all, condensed in a perspicuous and agreeable style... We have so repeatedly spoken of the merits of the design of this work, and of the able manner in which it is edited, that on this occasion we will only repeat our conviction, that it is worthy a place in every library in the country, and will prove one of the most useful as it is one of the most interesting publications which has ever issued from the American press." - N. Y. Courier & Enquirer. The Family Library is, what its name implies, a collection of various original works of the best kind, containing reading, useful and interesting to the family circle. It is neatly printed, and should be in every family that can afford it - the price being moderate." - New-England Palladium. "The Family Library is, in all respects, a valuable work." - Pennsylvania Inquirer. "We are pleased to see that the publishers have obtained sufficient encouragement to continue their valuable Family Library." - Baltimore Re publican. "We recommend the whole set of the Family Library as one of the cheapest means of affording pleasing instruction, and imparting a proper pride in books, with which we are acquainted." - Philadelphia U. S. Gazette. "It will prove instructing and amusing to all classes. We are pleased to learn that the works comprising this Library have become, as they ought to be, quite popular among the heads of Families." -N. Y. Gazette: "It is the duty of every person having a family to put this excellent Library into the hands of his children." - N. Y. Mercantile Advertiser. We have so often recommended this enterprising and useful publication (the Family Library), that we can here only add, that each successive number appears to confirm its merited popularity." - N. Y. American. "It is so emphatically what it purports to be, that we are anxious to see It in every family. - It is alike interesting and useful to all classes of renders." - Albany Evening Journal. "The little volumes of this series truly comport with their title, and are in themselves a Family Library." - N. Y. Commercial Advertiser. "We have met with no work more interesting and deservedly popular than this valuable Family Library." - Monthly Repository. "The plan of the Family Library must be acceptable to the American reading community." - N. Y. Journal of Commerce. "To all portions of the community the entire series may be warmly commended." - American Traveller, Paperback, Label: Forgotten Books, Forgotten Books, Product group: Book, Published: 2016-06-16, Studio: Forgotten Books, Sales rank: 9234607.
