“A plain straightforward account.... The translation seems to have been carefully made, and the editor’s notes, though not numerous, are of distinct value. Nevertheless, the book is something of a disappointment. In his effort to cover the entire field the author has naturally been compelled to include a great deal that is already found in the high-school text-book.”
