4 Valuable Works 



XV. OUTLINES of HISTORY, from the Earliest 

 Records to the Present Time. Prepared for the Use of 

 Schools, with Questions, b)' JOHN FKOST, A. M. 



" We have glanced over, with much satisfaction, the second American edition 

 of a work entitled, * Outlines of History ; embracing a concise history of the 

 World, from the earliest period to the pacification of Europe in 1815,' which is 

 just published by Messrs. Carey & Lea. This edition contains some important 

 additions, and a set of questions for examination of students arranged by John 

 Frost, A. M. The main object of the work is, by giving a selection of interest- 

 ing and striking facts from more elaborate histories, properly and carefully ar- 

 ranged with chronological tables, to render the study of general history less dry 

 and repulsive than it has been heretofore. This, we think is fully accomplished. 

 Very great care appears to have been bestowed on the selections, and in arrang- 

 ing the chronological tables, as well as in the classification of the historical mat- 

 ter into parts and chapters. The work will sufficiently recommend itself to all 

 who examine it." Sat. Eve. Post.
