Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Papers for Home Reading
It is impossible, however, that they should be without traces of the region in which they were first issued, and the conditions of mind to which they were addressed; but the writer remembers with lively satisfaction how many of his countrymen in America will recognize these very features, and recall the memories of a land that can never be forgotten by its children.
