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 historical 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.—Springfield Republican.

If this admirable volume (Fiske’s “Civil Government”) can be fairly taught to our rising generation, the future, we believe, will show that Mr. Fiske has never done more useful work than in its preparation.—The Congregationalist (Boston).
