The "Athenaeum" says:--"There is no more practical way of communicatingelementary information than that which has been adopted in this series.When we see contained in 124 small pages (as in _Fast in the Ice_) suchinformation as a man of fair education should possess about icebergs,northern lights, Esquimaux, musk-oxen, bears, walruses, &c., togetherwith all the ordinary incidents of an Arctic voyage woven into a clearconnected narrative, we must admit that a good work has been done, andthat the author deserves the gratitude of those for whom the books areespecially designed, and also of young people of all classes."
