“ The Log-letters are full of the most happily-drawn pictures of animated
things................ His pages are brimful of lively sketches from heginning to end.”
SATURDAY REVIEW.
“ A delightful book, which we heartily commend to the general reader.
Lord George Campbell has been able to fill his compact volume with information
of which very little is stale, and which affords an ample store of entertainment.”
TIMES .
“ The chronicles, evidently too faithful, of their misadventures on shore, their
rides and their troubles are, each and all, the best of reading................In Lord
George’s lively pages is the reader carried pleasantly along, as though over
halcyon seas, past almost every oountiy on the face of the globe. He will enjoy
landing at the various ports as the energetic sub-lieutenant mnst have done, he
will lose his heart in true sailor fashion to one dusky beauty after another, and
he will, we can answer for it, turn the last page of the pretty volume with
regret that he is parting from the pleasantest and cheeriest of fellow travellers.”
LAND AND WATER.
“ There is indeed no portion of the work which tho lover of travel will not
find it profitable to read, nor is there any one chapter throughout which contains
anything that is not in the highest degree interesting as well as instructive.
We cannot in short do better than suggest to our readers, when they have the
opportunity, to take up these ‘Log-letters from the Challenger.’ We are sure
they will be delighted with the contents.”
