THE LONDON TIMES says; "Mr. Bacheller is admirable alike in his
scenes of peace and war. He paints the silent woods in the fall of
the year with the rich golden glow of the Indian summer. He is
eloquently poetical in the lonely watcher's contemplation of
thousands of twinkling stars reflected from the broad bosom of the
St. Lawrence, and he is grimly humorous in some of his dramatic
episodes. Nor does anything in Crane's 'Red Badge of Courage'
bring home to us more forcibly the horrors of war than the
between-decks and the cockpit of a crippled ship swept from stem to
stern by the British broadsides in an action brought a entrance on
Lake Erie."
