NOTICES OF THE PRESS.
Camp and Quarter-Deck; with numerous battle scenes and portraits. Published
by Burgess and Stringer, New-York, Part I. The design of this work is to present in
a popular form a detail of the military and naval engagements which occurred during
the last great European war. The author has taken as his authorities the most accredited
writers on the subject; and has invested his narratives with all the interest
which a popular and brilliant style is capable of affording to the stirring events he has
undertaken to delineate. We have no doubt but that the work will become extremely
popular with a large class of readers.

of historical and biographical facts, is handsomely got up, and profusely illustrated.—

live in the “happy times of peace.” It is excellent.
