McMASTER'S FIFTH VOLUME.


History of the People of the United States.

By Prof. John Bach McMaster. Vols. I, II, III, IV, and V now ready. 8vo. Cloth, with Maps, $2.50 per volume.

The fifth volume covers the time of the administrations of John Quincy Adams and Andrew Jackson, and describes the development of the democratic spirit, the manifestations of new interest in social problems, and the various conditions and plans presented between 1821 and 1830. Many of the subjects included have necessitated years of first-hand investigations, and are now treated adequately for the first time.

"John Bach McMaster needs no introduction, but only a greeting.... The appearance of this fifth volume is an event in American literature second to none in importance this season."—New York Times.

"This volume contains 576 pages, and every page is worth reading. The author has ransacked a thousand new sources of information, and has found a wealth of new details throwing light upon all the private and public activities of the American people of three quarters of a century ago."—Chicago Tribune.

"In the fifth volume Professor McMaster has kept up to the high standard he set for himself in the previous numbers. It is hard to realize thoroughly the amount of detailed work necessary to produce these books, which contain the best history of our country that has yet been published."—Philadelphia Telegraph.

"The first installment of the history came as a pleasant surprise, and the later volumes have maintained a high standard in regard to research and style of treatment."—New York Critic.
