Need we add that it is a volume for all Indians to possess as a friend and counsel."—Literary Gazette, Aug. 3."The manner of theEast India Voyager, is as agreeable as its matter is curiously instructive. To the general reader, many of the facts will seem minute, but looking at the persons for whom the volume is primarily designed, this is a necessity and a merit."—Spectator, Aug. 3."Miss Roberts has in the present work given much useful and valuable information to those journeying to India. It may, indeed, be called avade mecumreplete with knowledge.

In one word, we can recommend it to all persons about proceeding to the East, as being the best practical guide that has hitherto been produced."—Sunday Times, Aug. 4, 1839.
