"It is marked by that strong common-sense and accurate learning which have rendered the author's educational treatises so indispensable to all professional teachers. We know of no work on synonyms that is equal in value to this."—New York Recorder.

"This work (Elements of Logic) has long been our text-book here. The style in which you have published this new edition of so valuable a work leaves nothing to be desired in regard of elegance and convenience."—Professor Dunn, Brown University.
"Its merits are now too widely known to require an enumeration of them. The present American edition of it is conformed to the ninth English edition, which was revised by the author, and which contains several improvements on the former issues."—North American Review.
"This elementary treatise holds a very high rank among the educational works of the day, having been introduced into most of the best managed and popular seminaries of learning, both in England and the United States. It is got up in correct and beautiful style."—Merchants' Magazine.
"From stereotype plates, and the new ninth edition revised by its author, have just been published, in a fairer and handsomer style, than the English copy, Archbishop Whately's Elements of Logic, which, like the 'Rhetoric' by the same prelate, has taken its place as a standard work, and is too generally known and used to need special notice."—Christian Inquirer.
