“Mr. Clifton Johnson has a faculty all his own for entering easily and pleasantly into the life of the common people wherever he may go. The valley of the Mississippi as he followed it gave him many opportunities to study phases of American life which belong distinctly in the category of ‘highways and byways.’ The book is eminently readable, while from the pictorial side it has the advantage of scores of Mr. Johnson’s own photographs.”—The Outlook.

“A more readable book of travel ... is not often published.... As in other volumes of the series, he has described the rurally picturesque and typical and has avoided the urbanly conventional and uninteresting.”—The Dial.

“A story of New England life, liberally sprinkled with tales and legends of early days, each one accompanied by an illustration that illustrates. They are homely folk about whom Mr. Johnson writes, and he writes in a plain and simple style, giving pictures of them as they move about pursuing their daily occupations.”—The Delineator.
