A writer in the North American Review observes, that the Baron seems to have been an
ardent and enterprising character, with more wit than discretion, but that his accounts bear
every mark of authenticity, and are quite confirmed by contemporary, as well as subsequent
writers on the same country. The English edition having been translated under the inspection
of the author, is probably more correct than the French editions. It contains also several
additions published for the first time; particularly the celebrated Dialogue "between the
author and Adario, a noted man among the savages."-Rich.
