Excerpt from Abridged History of the United States: Or Republic of America The author, while improving the work, by new illustrations (as the Chart of Early land-titles, and the American Temple of Time), has not suffered the important study of our country's history to be run down in her hands, by putting into a synopsis, where every inch of room is needed for essential events, either mere biographies, pictures to amuse, or imperfect likenesses of the great and good, which diminish reverence by destroying the mind's ideal of moral beauty. Let the students of this history study, not play, and they will be rewarded by a noble advance in education. E. W.

Excerpt from History of the United States; Or Republic of America: With a Chronological Table and a Series At a time when the accumulated mass of knowledge is great, beyond the human capacity, service is done to science, by clear arrangement and devices addressed to the eye. If the faculties are enabled to seize and hold fast the frame-work of an important subject, future facts will naturally find and keep their own place in the mind, and the whole subject rest there in philosophical order. Not only is this important, as respects the particular study thus acquired; but as regards intellectual habits and general improvement. To accomplish these ends, with regard to the history of the United States, is one of the main objects of the present work. Its plan is chronographically exhibited in front of the title page. The maps, included between the periods of the work, coincide in time with the branches of the subject; and the sketches on the maps picture the events there expressed in words. But most minds find it difficult to remember dates, though ever so well arranged; and hence experienced educationists recommend that the memory should not in this respect be overtaxed; but that dates should rather be kept at hand in books, to be consulted as occasion requires. Hence, the importance of arrangements in printed works, by which dates may stand prominent, and be easily found. A cursory glance at the chronological table, and along the margin of this work, may satisfy the observer that this task has been executed with faithfulness. Every student or reader of history should begin with that of his own country; and the history of the United States is on some accounts, a more safe and profitable study than that of any other nation.
