Excerpt from Abridged History of the United States: Or Republic of America

The author, while improving the work, by new illustrations (as the Chart of Early land-titles, and the American Temple of Time), has not suffered the important study of our country's history to be run down in her hands, by putting into a synopsis, where every inch of room is needed for essential events, either mere biographies, pictures to amuse, or imperfect likenesses of the great and good, which diminish reverence by destroying the mind's ideal of moral beauty. Let the students of this history study, not play, and they will be rewarded by a noble advance in education. E. W.
