Excerpt from Winter Adventures of Three Boys in the Great Lone Land This book of Winter Adventures of Three Boys in the Great Lone Land follows the one entitled Three Boys in the Wild North Land. In the previous volume the stories were those of the Summer and Fall. In this book they are of the Winter and Spring. Each volume is complete in itself. In sending out this volume the author is profoundly thankful to the indulgent reviewers who had so many kind words to say about the first book. In about the only adverse criticism that we saw, and which was kindly written, the reviewer seemed to think it strange that boys could have such a jolly time with a lot of Christian Indians as we had described. He rightly stated that boys' ideas of Indians were associated with the tomahawk and the scalping knife, and that they had the impression that the only good time they could have among them was when the blood-curdling war-whoops were heard and the redskins were being shot down by adventurous lads led on by cowboys.
