"Professor Heercn'a Historical Researches stand ir 
ili8 \eff highest rank among those with which modern 
tJermany has enriched the Literature of Europe." — 
{Quarterly Review. 
" All students of classical antiquity in this country 
are indebted to Mr. Talboys for the judgment and the 
zeal which he has exerted in making the works of this 
author accessible to English readers. We look upon 
Heeren as having breathed a new life into the dry 
bones of Ancient History. In countries, the history of 
which has been neglected, as being too imperfectly 
known to atlord lessons of political wisdom, he has 
taught us to look lor still more interesting lessons — on 
the social relations of men, and the intercourse of 
nations in the earlier ages of the world. His work is a» 
learned as a professed commentary on the ancient histo- 
rians and geographers, and as entertaininj^ as a modern 
book of travels." — Edinburgh Review. 
"There is no writer of modern times to whom the 
students of Ancient History are so deeply indebted as 
Professor Heeren. He is the equal of Niebuhr, of 
Miiller, and of Boeckh, in learning and talent; and he 
surpasses them all iu shrewdness and sagacity. The 
translation has been executed with equal spirit and 
fidelity, and has received the approbation of the illus- 
trious author. For ourselves, we feel deeply indebted 
to Mr. Talboys, who has supplied such rich stores of 
instruction and entertainment; and, for our country 
men, we can only say, that if this, the best historical 
work of modern times, does not obtain distinguished 
success, we shall despair of the cause of historical 
literature." — Athenceum.

" In scrupulous fidelity, in sound judgment, and in

His design in the present work is to give a connected 
view of the political and colonial system of Europe,

were formed into a system, tov\'ards the close of the fif- 
teenth century, to the re-establishment of the States 
system, consequent upon the fall of Napoleon. His
