In 15 Volumes 8vo, cloth (not sold separately). _With 30 Portraits printed on India paper._ Athenaeum. "In point of style Prescott ranks with the ablest English historians, and paragraphs may be found in his volumes in which the grace and elegance of Addison are combined with Robertson's majestic cadence and Gibbon's brilliancy." J. Lothrop Motley. "Wherever the English language is spoken over the whole earth his name is perfectly familiar. We all of us know what his place was in America. But I can also say that in eight years (1851-59) passed abroad I never met a single educated person of whatever nation that was not acquainted with his fame, and hardly one who had not read his works. No living American name is so widely spread over the whole world."

NOTE.--_The Edition is limited in number, and intending purchasers would do well by ordering early from their respective Booksellers._ The Times. "No greater service can be rendered to literature than the republication, in a handsome and attractive form, of works which time and the continued approbation of the world have made classical.... This new library edition of Dr. Lingard's 'History of England,' which has just been published in ten volumes, is an excellent reproduction of a work which had latterly been becoming somewhat scarce, and of which a new edition seems to be really wanted.... The accuracy of Lingard's statements on many points of controversy, as well as the genial sobriety of his view, is now recognised." The Tablet. "It is with the greatest satisfaction that we welcome this new edition of Dr. Lingard's 'History of England.' It has long been a desideratum.... No general history of England has appeared which can at all supply the place of Lingard, whose painstaking industry and careful research have dispelled many a popular delusion, whose candour always carries his reader with him, and whose clear and even style is never fatiguing. The type and get up of these ten volumes leave nothing to be desired, and they are enriched with excellent portraits in etching." The Spectator.
