Notice of the New Edition of Irving.
"The typography of this series is all that could be desired.
Nothing superior to it has been issued from the American
press. Irving will be among American classics what Goldsmith
is among those of the Fatherland. His works have not
been crowded from our shelves by the hosts of new claimants
for public favor, who have appeared since the Sketch
Book was in everybody's hands. We have often wondered
in common with other readers, why there was no good American
edition of his writings; but his place, in our literary
affections, remains as high as ever. The desideratum of
which we speak, is now to be supplied by Mr. Putnam; and
we are now to have an elegant uniform edition of the works
of our foremost writer in the belles-lettres department of literature."
