Excerpt from The Boston Book: Being Specimens of Metropolitan Literature

N the first volume of the Boston Book, edited by Mr. Henry T. Tuckerman, was published in 1836; the sec ond, edited by Mr. Benjamin B. Thatcher, appeared in 1837; and the third and last, edited by Mr. George S. Hillard, was published in 1841. A new volume having been very generally called for, and as some years have elapsed since the last one was issued, a continuation of the series is deemed desirable.
