OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.

"The History of England before us is as great an improvement upon the old class of school books, as railways were to stage coaches. In a space of upwards of 750 pages the Authors have with admirable skill condensed the multitude of Historical occurrences of past ages without omitting any important fact, Even in these days of wonders the work is a marvel of cheapness, and only requires to be known to become generally introduced into our Colleges and Schools."-Globe.

"We heartily recommend this new History of England to every one engaged in tuition; the plan upon which it is written is admirable, and the 4000 questions which it contains are of the greatest use to all Students preparing for the middle class examinations."-Sun.

out

d we warmly recommend it to work of tuition,"-City Press.
