   Review in The Nation, April 1907: Tiberius is a showman and travelling collector of curiosities for his show. [...] Not every day can even a Tiberius Smith play poker with Arctic giants for his own freedom; drive an automobile around the inner rim of a South American crater, [...] For the lover of the circus in literature here are thoughts that breathe; for the collector of the ultra modern and vaudevillainous in slang, words that burn; remain, for the lover of a book in the accepted sense of that word, feelings not fit for publication.
