HISTORICAL COURSE FOR SCHOOLS.

The object of this series is to put forth clear and correct views of history in simple language, and in the smallest space and cheapest form in which it could be done. It is hoped in time to take in short histories of all the chief countries of Europe and America, giving the results of the latest historical researches in as simple a form as may be. Those of England and Scotland will shortly appear, and authors are at work on other parts of the plan.
