| Catalog Notes | "The writer of the following unpretending stories resided several years in the South West and gathered during that time, many incidents that were treasured in the memory or sketched as they passed, some of which are here presented with the hope that they may prove interesting and profitable to youthful readers. It has been the aim of the writer to give incidentally, a glance at the natural scenery of the country, a hint respecting the habits of the people ... It will be perceived that he has not disturbed the continuity of the story to moralize ... With a sincere desire to be useful, these sketches ... are cheerfully commended to the perusal of the youth, especially the younger members of the Sabbath school"--Preface, p. [iii]-iv. In purple cloth. Frontispiece plate lithographed. |
