"On the spirit, the activity, and the judgment with which these travels have been conducted, we mean to bestow an unqualified approbation, and to point them out as highly worthy of imitation. The account with which the public is here presented, is written with great plainness and simplicity. The narrative is clear and lively; and the pictures It draws, whether moral or physical, carry with them every appearance of accuracy and good faith."-Edinburgh Review.
