“The first biographical sketch is of General Nathaniel Massie, and occupies some 70 pages of the volume. The second is of General Duncan McArthur, and takes up about 112 pages. Following this, is some account, made up principally of interesting anecdotes, of Captain William Wells, one of the active spirits of Wayne’s army, 1794. Then comes a sketch of the life of General Simon Kenton, filling about seventy pages, and closing the volume. Of all these men, Mr. McDonald was a contemporary; a young adventurer under Massie, an intimate of McArthur, an acquaintance of Wells, and a companion of Kenton. He was an actor in many of the scenes which he describes; and the incidents detailed in his volume, which he did not witness himself, were communicated to him by the actors soon after they had taken place. He is thus original authority, and the fullest reliance may be placed in his statements.”
- Peter G. Thomson, A Bibliography of the State of Ohio (1880)
