 the British Museum. Imperial Svo. 31*. 6d. half-bound morocco. 

 44 The arrangement adopted in this extended edition of Dr. Blair's valuable work is most 

 admirable ; each table comprising the space of half a century, and exhibiting, in parallel 

 columns, contemporary kings and rulers, the chief events that marked the history of their 

 time, and the most celebrated characters who flourished in their age. As an aid to the study 

 of history, and as a general work of reference, the tables arc of great utility ; and we are 

 satisfied that, as their merit becomes known, no one to whom they are accessible will ever take 

 up a history tnithout having this volume open before him. It is to our view an indispensable 

 companion to every collection of history, however small." — Britannia.
