THE WRITINGS OF 

 JOHN FISKE.

 ish Conquest. With a steel portrait of Mr. Fiske, 

 reproductions of many old maps, several modern 

 maps, facsimiles, and other illustrations. 2 vols. 

 crown 8vo, $4.00. 



This work forms the beginning of Mr. Fiske's history of 

 America. It is, perhaps, the most important single portion 

 yet completed by him, and gives the results of vast research. 



THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION. 



With Plans of Battles, and a new Steel Portrait of 

 Washington, engraved by Willcox from a miniature 

 never before reproduced. 2 vols. crown 8vo } gilt top, 

 $4.00. 



The reader may turn to these volumes with full assurance 

 of faith for a fresh rehearsal of the old facts, which no time 

 can stale, and for new views of those old facts, according to 

 the larger framework of ideas in which they can now be set 

 by the master of a captivating style and an expert in histori- 

 cal philosophy. New York Evening Post. 



The freshness and vivid interest of the narrative and the 

 comprehensive generalization which springs naturally from 

 the author's plan of a large work on American history, of 

 which the two volumes now published are no more than a 

 third or a fourth part, make it a book of new and permanent 

 interest. Spring-field Republican. 



CIVIL GOVERNMENT IN THE UNITED 

 STATES 



Considered with some Reference to its Origins. With 

 Questions on the Text by Frank A , Hill, and Biblio- 

 graphical Notes by Mr. Fiske. i2mo, $1.00, net. 

 If this admirable volume (Fiske's "Civil Government ") can 

 be fairly taught to our rising generation, the future, we be- 

 lieve, will show that Mr. Fiske has never done more use- 

 ful wink than in its preparation. The Congregational 

 (Boston).
