" These volumes form a delightful pendant to the Naval Sketch Book. There are 

 some excellent descriptions of the various campaigns in which the author has served. 

 Like his predecessor, he has mingled with his anecdotes a due proportion of graver 

 matter, which will tend to make the book useful, as well as amusing to military men. 

 He, however, frequently indulges his richly humourous talent, in which he combines 

 very considerable powers of observation, with a high relish for the ludicrous."
