Cork Herald.

"Exhibits Mr. Henty's talent as a story-teller at his best⋯. The drawings possess the uncommon merit of really illustrating the text."

Saturday Review.

"All boys will read this story with eager and unflagging interest. The episodes are in Mr. Henty's very best vein—graphic, exciting, realistic; and, as in all Mr. Henty's books, the tendency is to the formation of an honourable, manly, and even heroic character."

Birmingham Post.

"The hero starts life as a 'gate-boy, and, after years of hard work, makes a fortune and becomes a famous mining expert. The descriptions of pit life are extremely graphic. A thoroughly good book."
