E. B. Osborne describes Negley Farson’s “Transgressor in the Tropics” as a travel book that will touch the imagination of its readers, especially those who can think in terms of continents, oceans and centuries. The author understands the innumerable strange types of humanity he falls in with, and has a gift for enabling you to share his understanding. Sir John Squire admits that this book is good and exciting, but thinks it nothing like so good as “The Way of a Transgressor.” One feels it to be the book of a man who knew when he set out upon his travels that he was going to write about them. ,
