The Letters of Daniel Webster 



Edited by C. H. Van Tyne, Ph.D. 



This is the definitive edition of the correspondence of the great Ameri- 

 can orator and statesman. Everything concerning the age in which Webster 

 lived and worked is now legitimate matter for history, and the present vol- 

 ume will be of more assistance in completely reconstructing that age for the 

 student of historical research and for the general reader than any other 

 document in existence.

Border Fights and Fighters 



By Cyrus Townsend Brady 



"This author makes the long struggle vivid with the characters and deeds of Boone, 

 David Crockett, George Rogers Clark, William Henry Harrison, Houston, Tecumseh and 

 others. While there is reason to believe that the book is historically accurate, the writer 

 has the happy faculty of coloring his narrative with the personality of the great actors and 

 incidents full of romance." The Indianapolis Journal. 



Cloth, l2mo. 16 full-page pictures and many maps. Net, $I.JO. 



Also in a set with "Colonial Fights and Fighters," and "American Fights and 



Fighters," by the same author. Three in a box, $4.00. 



Reminiscences of Sixty Years in 

 Public Affairs 



By ex-Gov. George S. Boutwell 



" It is long since any book has been published from which so much first-hand material 

 for history may be gleaned. We have been able in these notices to give but a faint idea 

 of the extraordinary interest and permanent value of Mr. Boutwell's recollections. They 

 will be ranked among the most precious documents at his disposal by the future historian 

 who shall essay to describe the evolution of the United States during the period contem- 

 porary with the author's public life." Neiu York Sun. 



2 vols. Cloth, 8vo. Frontispiece portrait. Net, $£.00. 



Life of Dickens 



This book is a condensation of Forster's official life by George Gissing. 

 It provides what has never before been available, a complete and authoritative 

 life of Dickens within measurable compass. It is not merely an abridgment, 

 since the original work has been thoroughly revised by Mr. Gissing, who has 

 also added much critical matter of his own on Dickens' works. There are 

 twenty-eight full-page illustrations, which show among other things Dickens' 

 many homes, haunts, and associates. 



Cloth, 8vo. Illustrated. Net, $2.00.
