NATIONAL SERIES OF AMERICAN HISTORIES.
BY REV. JOSEPH BANVARD.
☞ The attention of the public is invited to the following notices of Banvard’s Histories. They contain a vast fund of just that kind of information, presented in a style possessing all the attractiveness and charm of romance, which every American, whether old or young, should possess.
PLYMOUTH AND THE PILGRIMS;
Or, Incidents of Adventures in the History of the First Settlers. With Illustrations. 16mo, cloth, 60 cts.
Mr. Banvard has wrought a good work in collecting, arranging, and presenting in so graphic and agreeable a manner the leading incidents of an event which will ever wake to quicken while the “Pilgrim Rock” tells its story, or a drop of pilgrim blood warms the veins of a descendant—Bangor Mercury.
The book, when once taken up, will not be laid down until finished.—Boston Cour.
An interesting volume. The incidents are well chosen, and are described in that direct, simple, and sprightly manner, for which Mr. Banvard is so justly esteemed, and which eminently qualifies him to be a writer for the young.—Am. Traveller.
