Blackie & Son's Books for Young People

"Messrs. Blackie are essentially a firm of publishers after a boy's own heart. Their list of stories of enterprise and adventure is perhaps unrivalled."—The Daily News.

"The stories published by Messrs. Blackie are of the best, and the paper, print, binding, and illustrations provided are worthy of the stories."—Guardian.

"The lad who owns a complete collection of Mr. Henty's writings will have a remarkably good knowledge of the wars of the world, for all periods of history and all parts of the globe seem equally familiar to this able author."—Graphic.
