This popular series of books was compiled by Mr. William D. Swan, the well-known Principal of the Mayhew School, Boston. From the very general and rapid introduction into schools they have obtained throughout the principal cities and towns of the United States, it is believed that they are better adapted to the wants of schools than any others.
