Critical APprobations of this Valuable Work.
" These Travels constitute a Work of much greater Im-
portance and Value than are attributable to the generality of
Publications under similar Titles. They are written in the
manner of Arthur Young's Travels in France, and furnish the
Reader with a vast Mass of Geographical, Commercial, Po,
litical, and Economical Information, the result of attentive
remark, and judicious inquiry."—New Annual Register.
" Our present Traveller has unite( great attention to no
common abilities. His Descriptions Pare clear and explicit,.
and his Observations in general are judicious. He had ihd-
best means of Information. Thtough the,whole of the Totir,
Agriculture, and its various operations and instruments, were
observed with articular attention. His Description of the
Northern and Eastern Regions of the United States, may be
considered as a valuable and. faithful account of a Country
hitherto little known."- Critical Review.

" The useful Information which this Work contains, is.
considerable. The Duke has certainly not been an idle Tra-
veller, and his Agricultural Remarks will greatly assist the
Reader; in acquiring comet ideas of the Country. The
Translator appears to be well acquainted with the American
States; and his Notes frequently increase the information,
and correct the errors of the original." --Monthly Review.
