Trent, William P. Brief history of American literature. [*]$1.40. Appleton.
A thorogoing text book containing a condensed account of the development of American literature, rather than a series of essays on leading American authors. The study is presented with marginal topics, and has at the end of each chapter a bibliography which has been based upon the equipments of the average school library, and which also contains helps for further study.
“A manual both sound and stimulating.” Charles Sears Baldwin.
