Book Description
James Russell Lowell had already pronounced the "Frog" story "the finest piece of humorous writing yet produced in America." We are sure he would also have bestowed this word of praise upon the remaining stories that make up this small volume, though the title sketch is definitely the redeeming feature of the collection.
