REVIEW NOTICES.--"This is a great curiosity. Such a book has never before been produced in the United States. The Annalist will enjoy a peerless fame--we trust his work will be universally bought and read."
"No American who can read should be without a copy of this invaluable contribution to our early American history." "It seems to convey us back to other times--we see things as they were--_minutely and particularly_, and not as presented in stately and buskined history, in one general view--vague, glimmering, indistinct." "This is in truth a work without example for its imitation, and with equal truth it is in execution a work _sui generis_." "It is a museum that will never cease to attract.
It deserves the grat.i.tude of the country and the patronage of the reading community. It will furnish the historian, the biographer, and the patriotic orator, with matter to adorn and beautify their productions."

The Plates are accompanied by letterpress, containing detailed references to the various objects delineated.
