STIRRING EVENTS IN HISTORY. With 4 full-page Illustrations by JOHN SCHÖNBERG. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, 2_s._ 6_d._ In history there are some events which stand out as eminently notable, either from their importance, their intrinsic interest, or the greatness of the men or women concerned in them. In this work a number of these events have been gathered together and thrown into the form of short narratives. The incidents have been drawn from times and countries wide apart, the aim having been to give variety rather than a finished view of any definite period--to present the young reader with a series of historical pictures which, while instructive in themselves, may induce a taste for further reading in the same direction.
